Hi guys.  What's the low-down on training from this institution?  I have the opportunity to receive training from their Director of Training who is visiting SA but they are a total unknown entity to me.  I mean I've heard of them but their actual training is a blank slate for me.  And like all of us I'm spread pretty thin at the moment both financially and timewise and need to use both as efficiently as possible.

i have heard good things about their training. and should be good. but after spending and losing money and tiime with one arsehole of a trainer from the us - i have made up my mind to train local. we have more talent and potential here in rsa than we appreciate.

if time and money is not an issue for you , then go for it

To clarify Sig Sauer training situation in South Africa.

The company is fully committed to investing in this country, as a result of winning tenders from top end end users. In terms of government initiatives to foster investment, training is one avenue that can be followed to achieve this end.

In term of the quality of training, Sig only uses professionals with a well known pedigree, and their training courses are constructed from reseal life situations from Military and law Enforcemet encounters.

With the two trainers that have visited this country so far, the only comment is that they have been extremely well received by the coutries Military and Law enforcement professionals.
