What Is Active Shooter Response Training?
Active Shooter Response is a customized training and planning program that teaches teams how to recognize warning signs, manage, and respond to violent incidents in a way that prioritizes life safety.
The courses combine classroom instruction, site-specific walkthroughs, and scenario-based drills to build skills that are realistic for non-law-enforcement staff.
Participants learn to
- Identify pre-incident indicators and suspicious behavior
- Apply Run/Hide/Fight concepts, lockdown, and evacuation strategies that account for real-world challenges.
- Communicate effectively during a crisis (internal alerts, 911 calls, handoffs to responding officers)
- Support post-incident accountability, reunification, and documentation.
