MODERN EXTREME TACTICS & PROTECTION (MDX)
Mike Jones is a United States Marine, a former federal law enforcement officer, a former private security supervisor, and a certified Protective Services Instructor. He has been a Firearms, Defensive Tactics, Use-of-Force, and Protective Services Instructor on federal government contracts for 14+ years. He is a graduate of the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC) Firearms Instructor Training Program (FITP); the Glock Firearms Instructor Academy; the Virginia DCJS General Instructor & Firearms Instructor training program; and the NRA Law Enforcement Firearms Instructor Training Program.
Prior to his current position as CEO of MODERN EXTREME TACTICS & PROTECTION®, Mike was employed with Kerberos International as a Federal Security Services Regional Training Director for the DEA contract in Arlington, Virginia. Previous to that, Mike was the Lead Trainer & Training Manager for 300+ Protective Security Officers on a DHS/FPS contract for MaxSent, in Northern Maryland.
Previous to the MaxSent FPS Northern Maryland contract, Mike Jones was the Lead Trainer & Acting Training Director at the Protective Services Training Academy (PSTA), under Akal, in Region-11.

In addition to his extensive training experience, Mike Jones is intimately familiar with training and compliance standards for State and Federal security contracts.
The mission of MDX TACTICS & PROTECTION® is to train, educate, and deploy the most well-trained, highly effective Protective Services Officers (PSOs) in the country.
We are the only protective services organization in the country that qualifies its graduates to work as Certified PSOs in the State, Federal, Corporate, and Commercial Security industry, by teaching a rigorous, innovative curriculum that leads to attainment of multiple high-value State and Federal private security licenses and certifications. In addition to receiving the best armed security training in the industry, and numerous private security licenses and certifications, our graduates receive job placement assistance in the State, Federal, Corporate, and Commercial Security Sector, using our nation-wide network of private security contractors.
Schools, businesses, and communities are begging for beefed-up safety patrols, but the police are simply overwhelmed, and increasingly short-staffed. Plus, they cannot be everywhere simultaneously.
Partnering with businesses, schools, neighbor associations, nonprofit organizations, government agencies, and local law enforcement agencies, graduates of MDX TRAINING ACADEMY® can help safeguard communities, neighborhoods, schools, and businesses through aggressive patrols and responses to non-emergency calls for assistance.
Our Vision is to build a veritable army of extremely well-trained Protective Service Officers that we can deploy in schools, businesses, and communities to reduce crime and violence, proactively.
MDX Protective Services Training® is the “Gold Standard” in Armed Protective Services Training for men and women who want to join one of the fastest-growing and highest-paying occupations in the country: Armed Protective Services Officers.
MDX Protective Services Training® far exceeds city, state, and federal requirements for armed security officer training & certification, with 160 hours of extensive and intensive crime-prevention-focused training that prepares our PSOs to serve safely & effectively in schools, churches, special events, businesses, and communities.

MDX Trainers and Officers are the Best of the Best in the Protective Services industry in 6 Key Metrics.
PSO TRAINING PROGRAM® far exceeds city, state, and federal requirements for armed security officer training & certification, with 280 hours of extensive and intensive crime-prevention-focused Protective Security Training.
PSO TRAINING PROGRAM® will ensure that our Officers gain the knowledge & skills they need to serve safely & effectively as Armed Tactical Security Officers on the streets of America.
The condition, quality, and the wear of uniforms play a major role in how the public perceives Security Officers. A clean uniform worn by a physically fit officer inspires confidence, whereas sloppy-looking, out-of-shape officers will have the exact opposite effect.
A Security Officer with a sharp, professional appearance is a great way to gain the trust of the public, because the officer’s appearance has set an expectation for how officers will conduct themselves.
Therefore, MDX PSOs must always maintain a professional appearance. Both trainees and incumbent Officers are held strictly accountable to all regulations governing personal appearance. Employees are required to always present a neat and tidy appearance while on duty, whether in uniform or civilian attire.
To enroll in the PSO TRAINING PROGRAM® candidates must be physically fit and mentally strong. They must be ready to perform as though lives depend on it… because they do.
MDX Physical Abilities Test (PAT) is nothing like gym class or working out at an athletic club. It is meant to tax the body, test the individuals reflexes, and prey on a person’s instincts to quit when things get hard. Recruits will be scored on their ability to perform specific tasks and activities that will show clearly if they can perform the duties of an MDX PSO.
This is a physically demanding screening program. The Physical Abilities Test is meant to do only one thing: weed out those who can't cut it.
Knowledge, Skills, and Experience Matters! When it comes to protecting lives Knowledge, Skills, and Experience Matters! When hiring and deploying graduates of PSO TRAINING PROGRAM®, private and government clients are assured peace of mind knowing that their communities, schools, churches, and businesses are fully protected by qualified and experienced professionals.
Utilizing Military Veterans
MDX TRAINING ACADEMY® recruits and trains Military Veterans because the entire country RESPECTS Military Veterans, especially Marines, Navy Seals, and Army Special Forces!
Training and Hiring the Best of the Best To get the Best, you must Train and Hire the Best! Period! Quality In = Quality Out!
Another way of saying this is, “You get what you pay for.” When it comes to the private security industry, truer words have never been spoken. Most security officers in this industry are unskilled and poorly trained individuals who know it’s an easy path to employment… with the hiring and qualification bar set very, very low.
Unlike other security companies that hire individuals with the bare minimum qualifications to be an armed security officer, PSO TRAINING PROGRAM® uses the exact same hiring standards as most municipal police departments.
