This four-hour course highlights the changes in the response to active shooters through the years. We will examine the historical responses to several high-profile active violence events and explore the changing thinking about the response to modern day shootings. An emphasis is placed on the role that dispatch plays in this ever-changing landscape and how multi-discipline training can benefit everyone involved within the framework of the new response tactics.
This is a half day (four hour) course that will run from 1 pm to 5 pm in our virtual classroom featuring LIVE instruction and interaction with the instructor and other course attendees. The cost is $150 per person and the course is SNC approved (MNA2025-6068).
