Active Threat Response Seminar

Protect Your Workforce with Proven Crisis Strategies

A 60–90 minute program to equip your team with the mindset, awareness, and tactics to prevail in active threat scenarios.

Why Your Organization Needs This Now

Active threats, including active shooter incidents, are rare but devastating. Workplaces are the most common target, with the majority of incidents ending before police arrive. In today’s unpredictable world, proactive training is a leadership imperative.

  • Of the 229 active shooter incidents recorded by the FBI between 2019 and 2023, the majority occurred in commerce (98 incidents), open spaces (85), government buildings (12), educational settings (12), and healthcare facilities (6). The FBI defines these as incidents where an individual is actively engaged in killing or attempting to kill people in a populated area.

  • In 2023, there were 740 workplace fatalities due to violent acts, including 458 homicides, accounting for 8.7% of all work-related fatalities. The Bureau of Labor Statistics reported 392 workplace homicides and over 37,000 nonfatal intentional injuries in 2020. Between 2015 and 2019, there was an annual average of 1.3 million nonfatal workplace violence incidents.

Your team deserves the tools to survive and prevail. The Active Threat Response Seminar delivers battle-tested strategies to make that a reality.
