The “Response to Active Shooter Events” training educates school personnel on formulating a proper security plan and sticking to it. The training emphasizes concepts which can be translated into a number of different scenarios. It also focuses on common questions and issues, such as windows, door shades and fire alarms, which are all too often absent from other broad-based active shooter trainings. The training relies heavily on “proof of concept” by analyzing these recommendations during actual school shooting events.
