Active Shooter Training

Between 2000 and 2018, there were 277 active shooter incidents in the United States. In all of these instances, there were 2,430 casualties, with 884 total deaths. Knowing what to do in these situations could be the difference between life and death. That’s why active shooter training from EMC CPR & Safety Training is crucial for your company, facility, school, or project.

In our active shooter training for businesses, we provide all the skills and knowledge you and your staff need during a potential incident. Our classes are taught by Law Enforcement experts with real-life experience. This ensures you’re learning from the best in the field. And because our classes are available nationwide, we can help no matter where you’re located.

Learn to Run. Hide. Fight.

Your survival in an active shooter incident depends on you having a plan. Our training goes over three main steps for you to take. These include running, hiding, or fighting.

Run: If the exit is clear, you should always try to leave the area. Leave your stuff behind and helps others if they need it. Wait to call for help until you’re safe.
Hide: If you can’t escape, you should find a safe place to stay hidden. Turn off lights, stay calm, and keep your cell phone on silent.
Fight: If you don’t have any other options and the shooter confronts you, your best option is to fight. Improvise weapons to try and take the shooter down.

By instilling these concepts into your brain, our trainers will ensure you know what to do when the time comes. In most cases, you’ll have to wait at least 10 to 15 minutes for law enforcement to arrive and secure the scene. This means you’ll need to act before help arrives.

Keep Your Employees Safe No Matter the Circumstances

It’s common for people to panic in active shooter situations. That’s why training ahead of time can help everyone keep a level head if an unfortunate incident ever occurs. With our active shooter training for schools and companies, we’ll help you develop an emergency action plan that outlines every step you need to take.

Additionally, you’ll have the option to go through several training exercises that mock an active shooter situation. This can help you mentally prepare for the anxiety and fear you’ll face if something ever happened. You’ll learn how to react when law enforcement arrives, and the best ways to evacuate your building if the main exits are blocked.

Many states and municipalities also require active shooter training for businesses as a part of their Fire Safety and Emergency Action Plans. Our training will satisfy this requirement while providing valuable knowledge.
