Emergency Medical Training
SGI has created a series of dynamically paced Emergency Medical Training courses with NAEMT certification ranging from our Basic Trauma Care course, which includes Bleeding Control for the Injured (B-CON), to more advanced training such as our Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC), Tactical Emergency Casualty Care (TECC), and Law Enforcement and First Response Tactical Casualty Care (LEFR-TCC) courses.
SGI presents these courses at our Regional Training Center in Riverside, CA. Our medical training cadre is comprised of Army Medics, Air Force PJs, Navy Corpsman, SWAT Team Paramedics, and Emergency Room Physicians, all with extensive experience providing emergency trauma care in non-permissive environments. Our instructors are NAEMT certified, and the SGI Regional Training Center is an NAEMT approved training site.
ADVANCED MEDICAL TRAINING
Our NAEMT advanced medical training courses, which include Tactical Emergency Casualty Care (TECC), Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC), and Law Enforcement & First Response Tactical Casualty Care (LEFR-TCC), are developed by collaborative teams of clinicians, EMS educators, and medical directors. Our trainers review current publications relevant to our course content and incorporate the latest research, current techniques, and innovative teaching approaches to provide our students with the best possible learning experience.
NAEMT continuing education courses are accredited by the Commission on Accreditation for Pre-Hospital Continuing Education (CAPCE). They are also recognized for recertification requirements by the National Registry of Emergency Medical Technicians (NREMT).

Tactical Emergency Casualty Care (TECC)
The Tactical Emergency Casualty Care (TECC) course developed by NAEMT’s Pre-Hospital Trauma Life Support (PHTLS) Committee, is based on the guidelines from the Committee on Tactical Emergency Casualty Care (Co-TECC) and the Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC) program. TECC uses lessons learned from our military and applies them to the civilian world of tactical medicine. This course covers topics designed to decrease preventable death in a tactical situation.
Topics include:
- Hemorrhage Control
- Surgical Airway Control and Needle Decompression
- Strategies for Treating Wounded Responders in Non-Permissive Environments
- Caring for Pediatric Patients
- Techniques for Dragging/Carrying Victims to Safety
- And Much More…
TECC focuses on medicine during these phases of care and provides guidelines for managing trauma in a civilian tactical or hazardous environment. While TECC has a tactical slant, it takes an all-hazards approach to providing care outside the normal operating conditions of most EMS agencies, such as responding to a mass casualty or active shooter event.
Class is approved for 16-hours of continuing education through CECBEMS. Learn More >>

This course was developed for public safety first responders (Law Enforcement, Public Safety, Firefighters, and other First Responders) to teach them the basic level of medical care necessary to help save an injured responder’s life until EMS practitioners can safely enter a tactical scene.
The course combines the principles of PHTLS and Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC), with the training provided to military medics by all branches of our Armed Services.
