Paramount Group launches advanced training division
South African company sets up new unit to focus on security challenges such as terrorism, violent extremism and insurgencies.
Paramount Group is setting up a new division for advanced training solutions, with an emphasis on modern CONOPS, battlefield management for governments engaged in asymmetric conflict, SF operations support, pilot and vehicle operator training and medical training.
The division, called Paramount Advanced Training and Support, consolidates existing global training, support and skills development capabilities in Paramount Group across its land, sea and air operations.
In order to bolster the capabilities of its new division, Paramount Group also announced on 11 January that it has taken a ‘strategic ownership’ stake in Burnham Global, a Dubai-based security services training company.
Paramount Group already operates training facilities for SF operators as well as IED and EOD detection, canine training and other functions. It also runs rotary- and fixed-wing pilot training.
