About the Course
An active shooter attempts to kill people in a confined and populated area. Sadly, the deadliest mass shooting incidents have claimed dozens of victims.
These types of shootings are often over within minutes. They are unpredictable and can progress quickly, with no pattern or method to the selection of the shooter’s victims.
Training for this situation can give all staff greater peace of mind. In a situation where every second counts, it pays to have well-trained staff who feel confident in their immediate response to an active shooter.
