IF AN ACTIVE SHOOTER EVENT OCCURRED, WOULD YOU BE READY?
Active shooter incidents are becoming everyday news headlines. While law enforcement and other first responders are regularly trained in responding to these incidents of violence, it’s the individuals already present in workplaces, religious establishments, and schools who are the true first line of defense. ProActive Response Group’s Active Shooter Training classes are designed to empower and equip those individuals to act when they find themselves in the midst of an unexpected crisis.
WHAT IS AN ACTIVE SHOOTER RESPONSE TRAINING CLASS LIKE?
Too many active shooter courses are hands-off, consisting of a video and perhaps a short lecture. ProActive Response Group’s mission is to fill in that knowledge gap with a complete active shooter training experience. This training will provide:
Awareness - Learn how to recognize a potential developing threat, and discover how an incidence of violence may be prevented entirely by taking timely action.
Inoculation - Experience ‘stress inoculation’ when you’re introduced to what an active shooter event may sound like.
Critical Thinking - Develop the critical thinking skills necessary to maintaining calm in life-threatening situations. Use nearby objects and your environment to create a plan for survival.
Survival - Understand your role as ‘first’ first responder until police and EMTs arrive. Acquire lifesaving first aid skills you’ll carry with you should an emergency medical situation interrupt your everyday routine.
