I've read a good bit of posts regarding the BW Academy and its price for training, but bear in mind that the Academy staffs primarily static positions...not mobil.

BW runs WPPS high threat protection courses every month, and the individuals that attend the vetting process don't pay any money to participate in the course. The DoS WPPS course is by invitation only...and offered to those who've had their resumes screened prior to invitation. That sure as hell doesn't mean that every shooter that shows up is grade A....but that's why it's a vetting course and not a training course. You're expected to have a clue when you show up and bring your knowledge/skill level to the table. Their will always be turds that slip through the cracks, but I can't think of an organization that doesn't experience that.

I've read that DynCorp lost their contract due to grooming standards...and no, that's not true. I've heard that TC is the company to go with...however they don't hold but a very few contracts right now. Their isn't a company out there that can't sling crap on eachother...and I believe the same is true for military units for the most part.
