Active Assailant: Prevention, Response, & Recovery
Wednesday, December 4, 2019
1:00 PM - 1:45 PM ET
The next mass shooting is not an “if” but a “when.” What is being done to prevent and mitigate active assailant risk? How has response by those in critical infrastructure (schools, businesses, hospitals, etc.) changed as a result of recent events? How has the police response changed? How can the insurance industry protect clients from the economic impact of such an event? We will discuss lessons learned from responders and the current best practices being used across the country to save lives.
Open to all students and industry.
