Safety Training Spotlight:

Active Shooter and Threat Awareness

This is a 2-hour awareness training. Active shooter training strengthens and reinforces an organization’s emergency action plan and can help reduce the risk of an incident occurring.

Learn More

Active shooter training is one of several proactive steps organizations can take to prepare employees and managers to respond appropriately to an active shooter incident. While the likelihood of an active shooter event is rare, all employees should know how to recognize the signs of potential violence and what their role is during an active shooter situation.

Request Training

OSHA requires employers to provide their employees with a safe environment to work. In the event an emergency situation arises, most employers must have an emergency action plan that describes how employees are expected to react. All employees must be trained on these written plans, which list emergency contacts and procedures like reporting fires or other emergencies, evacuation, and rescue/medical operations.
