Hostile Environment Awareness Training (HEAT)

Join HDFF for our Hostile Environment Awareness Training - Advanced (HEAT)! HDFF’s Flagship “Hostile Environment Awareness Training (Advanced)” is an advanced safety training built to address the needs of implementing personnel from NGOs, media, governmental and UN agencies, international civilians, and corporations. It is intended for individuals working, based, or traveling in high-risk “Red Countries,” or high-risk areas within medium-risk countries (as classified by insurance and foreign service advisories).

Objectives:

• To increase the understanding of proactive security and basic field measures taken before, during, and after a mission in hostile field environments.
• To enhance the resilience of personnel in hazardous environments by knowing how to manage dangerous situations and related stress, e.g. checkpoint behavior, ambush/active shooter, hostile crowds, IED, weapons effects, kidnapping, rescue by force, First Aid, and fire fighting in the field.
• To make decisions effectively as a team leader and function as a supportive team member in hostile environments and stressful situations, and gain a working knowledge of PTSD, Moral Injury (MI), and Psychological First Aid (PFA).
