Public sector workers, enforcement teams, housing associations, social and health care professionals, nursing staff, utility field representatives and public transport professionals and many more have attended the 2011 event, and the feedback has just been fantastic according to Robert Kaiser.

This 90-minute virtual education event will help your organization address and give you solutions to these critical questions:

  • Are you in compliance? Although there are marked differences between state laws, the program will detail the practical responses employers should take as a result of the shifting legal environment.
  • Are you ready for the new threat? Gun rights activists are using public businesses as a forum to test the limits of gun rights—brazenly conducting "open carry" experiments in retail establishments.

  5. Specific steps to cover in an active shooter response plan and the keys to success in each step
  6. How to train workers on the active shooter threat and alert them in an event
  7. Specific steps a facility should take to coordinate with local law enforcement to improve or coordinate response in the event of an active shooter
  8. Planning steps to effectively deal with the immediate aftermath of a rampage shooter (tending to victims, facilitating medical response, etc.)
  9. Active physical security measures that are effective to limit the deadly tally of an active shooter
  10. How to test your ability to respond to an active shooter incident, including performance measures to show whether you're as ready as you can be
