While we all hope that a school shooting incident will not take place in our jurisdiction, sadly, we know that no community is exempt from violence. We must continue to do all we can to be prepared when it does happen.  This course provides an intense look at the psychology behind a school shooter with a focus on ways in which a school shooting might be prevented, but ultimately to mitigate injuries and/or loss of life by being prepared and educated should the worst-case scenario take place.
