Most think it will never happen to them or around them. Mass shootings are things of the news, but the truth is, tragedy can happen anywhere at any time.
Take responsibility for your safety and/or your organization’s safety. Learn not only about the definition of a true mass shooting but the events of each, warning signs, and the role public policy plays in attempting to keep us safe. This 5-hour course provides life-saving and eye-opening information backed by statistical evidence that you can carry with you throughout your daily life. This course is of particular value to entities that see large numbers of people congregate, such as churches and schools.
