Course Description

Active shooters are people engaged in killing or attempting to kill people with firearms. Situations involving active shooters are unpredictable and evolve quickly.

If it wasn’t already apparent from the news, the threat of indiscriminate gun violence hasn’t diminished. It’s important now more than ever for active shooter preparedness training efforts to escalate across the country.

Our aim is to lower the body count by equipping people with the latest life-saving preparedness training.

Designed with the assistance of subject matter experts from the law enforcement community, this online course is intended for any audience in any setting. Everyone can benefit from this course because active shooter events happen at more places than just schools and higher learning facilities like colleges and universities.

This course is meant to help all ages and backgrounds.

Discuss active shooter events with your family. Especially in the case that you have school-age children in your life, talk with their schools, ask about their planning and response. Ensure children know what lock-down measures and drills are in their school and how they work. Talk about what to do if you and your family were ever involved in an active shooter incident. Preparation could save all of your lives.
