It introduces the philosophy of tactical pre-hospital trauma care\, emphasizing the need to treat multi-system trauma patients as complex individuals with unique medical and tactical requirements. This often calls for a different approach than that used in conventional emergency medicine. \nThe content is based on the real-world experience of numerous tactical first responders from police and military units who have operated in hostile environments around the world—situations where traditional pre-hospital treatment methods often fail. \nTraining begins with the fundamentals of tactical medical skills and progressively advances to more specialized topics. Participants will learn to assess complex injuries\, prioritize interventions\, and apply lifesaving measures effectively under high-risk and dynamic conditions\, always maintaining situational awareness and personal safety. \n\n\n\n \n \n \n \n\n \n \n Download Registration Form URL:https://ipasafrica.co.za/main/event/tactical-first-aid-advanced-basic-course-e/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20260907 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20260912 DTSTAMP:20260501T001440 CREATED:20260205T101955Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260205T101955Z UID:193222-1788739200-1789171199@ipasafrica.co.za SUMMARY:Terrorism – Recognising radicalisation\, preventing attacks\, dismantling networks | Terrorism – recognizing radicalization\, preventing attacks\, dismantling networks (D/E) DESCRIPTION:Description\n\nIn this seminar\, participants learn to recognize terrorist structures and networks – Islamist\, right-wing and left-wing extremist – and to realistically assess their effects on internal security.
