This course trains Police Motorcycle Operators to operate within an Motorcycle Escort team. This allows officers to conduct escorts from everything from parades and funerals to VIP escorts for dignitaries in their area. These types of escorts make VIP movements faster, smoother and safer for everyone involved including the general public. These types of escorts also demonstrate the skills, dedications and training of the individual riders as well as the organization.

The course takes riders through more advanced handling skills, as well as proper guidelines and rules for escort teams. Once all riders are performing on the same level the entire team runs through a number of mock escorts to polish and practice the skills that will make for a world class escort team. Once riders have successfully completed this course they will have the skills and knowledge to work with any Police VIP Escort team in the world.
