Clients of many of the large, “brand name” crisis intervention companies are reporting to us that the training they have been provided is less then appropriate for the situations their staff are involved in. It is also often mentioned that the techniques they are taught are found to be dangerous, hard to learn and remember, and awkward to use. Additionally, administrators mention “hidden costs”, and how they were overcharged for additional materials they had to purchase, on top of using the curriculum itself. When researching our competitors, you will hear statements such as: “Millions of people have been trained in our program" or “We are the industry standard”. Take the time to call some of their actual clients and find out if they truly are satisfied in the techniques they were taught. You will find as we have that the reality of becoming “the industry standard” was only due to the fact that there were no other options available years ago which led to a fast monopoly of the market, not superior quality.
Don't make the mistake of relying on outdated techniques and skills taught by our competitors. Many of them have not updated or revised their training in the last 20 years. The present "leaders" in industry's time has come to pass. Their old mindset, training, and techniques do not work with the current and changing threats of today.
