As the threats of terrorism and radicalization increase, so does the need for preparedness. A growing number of people are exposed to the possibility of being confronted by a terrorist or mass shooter someday.

In these incidents most casualties occur during the first ten minutes of the attack and help does not always arrive on time.

Our Mass Shooting Survival course teaches effective Prevention & Response.

In this unique course you will learn:

  • How to recognize behavioral, tactical and circumstantial Pre-Incident Indicators (PII)
  • How to detect early warning signs of preparation and staging for an active shooter attack
  • How to be an effective "On-Location Responder" during the initial moments of an active-shooter incident prior to law enforcement intervention
  • How to rapidly assess the threat and immediate response to attacks in a crowd
  • How to harden targets and use preventive security for your facility
  • How to provide timely Suspicious Activity Reports (SAR)
  • How to use cover and evacuate safely when possible
  • How to barricade your room and hide from the shooter
  • How to use Last Resort Survival Measures for fighting the shooter and taking control of the weapon
  • How to safely interact and communicate with Law Enforcement First Responders
  • And much more…
