Why Do Cruise Lines Need Self-Defense & Active Shooter Training?
They Are A Major Soft Target
Thousands of passengers with little to no training make a great target. Royal Caribbean sought the professional training services of C.O.B.R.A. Defense for this very reason. The biggest weapon against an active shooter is pro-activity which many companies are starting to realize.
Training Saves Lives.
C.O.B.R.A. is Law enforcement based which means it’s as close to reality as you can possibly get. An easy analogy especially for those who work in the cruise industry is the following.
If there are 100 people on a sinking ship and none of them have the ability to swim, how many lives would be lost? The answer is all of them. The single most important skill to survive the sinking of a ship / boat is the ability to swim. If you are counting on luck, the coast guard or the fact you may have a life vest you could be gambling with your life.
C.O.B.R.A Active Shooter Training provides a specific skill set to have the ability to survive until the threat is eliminated or until help arrives. We teach you how to be your own first responder.
At Sea & In Foreign Countries -There Is No Back Up
The cruse industry places thousands of people hundreds of miles from shore with little training and no back up reinforcements. Criminals know this fact as well. Those on the ship will have to be responsible for their own survival as help is a long way away.
The good news is many companies are starting to realize how critically important reality training is. Many major companies have contacted C.O.B.R.A. Self-Defense to provide the training they need before they need it most.
