RHD Off Road Driver Training

RHD Toyota Land Crusier FJ60

What better way to ring in the New Year than with RHD Off Road Driver Training from the industry's leader, BCDS Inc. Now your team can complete their off road driver training requirements while utilizing our fleet of right hand drive training vehicles.

Why train in RHD vehicles?

We believe in real world training and replicating it as much as possible through the training materials we use. Our trials have shown that students who trained in a left hand drive vehicle had a much more difficult time executing some of the skills they acquired through their training at BCDS when asked to operate a right hand drive vehicle.

Wouldn't it be nice to already be familiar with a RHD vehicle before having to drive one for the first time when your life may depend on it? We think so!

We believe in keeping true to our roots and providing the best in off road driver training to our men and women of this country who are about to deploy. BCDS is ready to facilitate your RHD training requirements, please contact us if we can be of service.

BCDS joins forces for...High Altitude Pre-Deployment Training

SOFIC Logo

BCDS is now a member of The Peak Team, providing High Altitude Pre-Deployment training in the Rocky Mountains of western Montana. Deploying teams can now complete their mobility, TCCC, cultural, language, and weapons training all while acclimating to elevations above 5,000ft.

The Peak Team consists of five outstanding small businesses with the shared philosophy of maximizing unit effectiveness and mitigating the inherent risk of operations at altitude, in extreme environments, and combat. These five teams include—The Peak Inc, BCDS Inc, Tactical Linguists Concepts, Instinctive Shooting International, and Information Sharing Group Inc. Each team member has years of experience providing specialized professional training to elite military special operations and premier law enforcement agencies.

The Peak Team has been assembled to afford pre-deployment teams with the practical training at high altitudes that is needed to survive high in the mountains of Afghanistan. Each member of The Peak Team plays a vital role in high altitude training by bringing their individual fields of expertise into the equation.

This unique assemblage of training has been specifically tailored to increase the effectiveness of individual and team operations at high altitude. A broad-spectrum training approach is used to focus on high altitude illness/injury treatment and prevention, wilderness first aid, wilderness survival training, rescue techniques, and may include high altitude military free fall/static line parachuting. More specific training such as TCCC (Tactical Combat Casualty Care) consists of operator initiated care, combat trauma skills, and advanced medical capabilities all scenario driven to reflect real world applications. High altitude mobility training employs realistic, situational off road training in vehicles ranging from LT-ATVs to MRAPs on varying terrain. This training can be adapted to suit a team’s specific needs, mission, and area of operations while instilling confidence and knowledge for ‘automatic’ conditioned responses in the areas of all-terrain driving, field expedient repair and vehicle recovery techniques. Cultural and language training is directed at—survival language skills and tactical phrases, hostile and inter-cultural negotiations, surveillance detection and counter surveillance techniques, as well as advanced cultural and social interaction. At the core of weapons training lives advanced tactical training and security services based upon US and Israeli techniques and practices that are proven, effective and field tested.

Training may be conducted in various locations including Fort William H. Harrison, Limestone Hills Training Area, and Circle L Ranch. Each training area consists of thousands of acres with elevations over 5,000ft, all of which offer distinct advantages for units deploying to high altitude areas.

Upon completion of training students are able to effectively achieve their mission objectives and increase their survivability in a high altitude environment.
