If I'm not LE, can I still attend an in-person course (what about retired cops)?
Depends. This is determined on a course by course basis. Please contact admin@efcombatives.com to verify.
What training options are available to non-LE?
Our User Certification Course is open to anyone and enrollment in our in-person combatives courses are on a case-by-case basis if you are non-LE. Please email admin@efcombatives.com with your background and any related credentials you may have to determine eligibility.
Does EFC host courses outside of the United States?
Yes, we can accomodate courses anywhere in the world. Contact admin@efcombatives.com to get more info on hosting a course outside of the U.S.
Is the Online Training seperate from the In-Person Training or is it combined?
All of our training comes with online course material that can be accessed for 24 months. Our "Online Courses" are separate and different from our "In-Person Courses". The EFC Instructor Certification Course is only available as in-person.

What size training room (mat space) is needed?
We can accommodate almost any size, but the minimum is typically 1200 sq. ft. of matt space. Ideally, we would want double that space (2400 sq. ft.) to have the most freedom with movement. A whiteboard and a screen for presentations is also required.
How many people are required to host a course
We require a course to have a minimum of 15 paid students. Courses can be "Private" and the host pays for all 15+ students, or it can be "Open" and the host is only required to pay for 5+ students, and the other 10 may come from surrounding areas. The minimum is still 15 students in either case. NOTE: International locations require a minimum of 25 students.
I'm having technical issues moving forward to the next video.
