Course Overview
Mass Casualty Violence (active shooter) incidents can shatter the very core of a community as well as the entire nation. Rare in occurrence, active shooters do not tend to have a discernible pattern or method to the selection of victims, and as such they appear to be unpredictable, hard to detect, and the incidents evolve quickly and generally end with a violent conclusion. No longer strictly a law enforcement issue, the whole community must take an active role and responsibility; a “First Preventer” mindset in the prediction, prevention, protection, mitigation, and response to these horrific and tragic events.
