Active Shooter Response Training
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security has approached education and training for Active Shooter situations in two ways: (1) by creating an online training module for non-law enforcement personnel; and (2) by developing a training program for law enforcement and security personnel.
As active shooter incidents increase across the United States, organizations such as schools, government agencies, and private sector businesses are opting to have security experts such as MSA Security provide threat and risk assessment services as well as Active Shooter Response Training for their staff.

Famous quotes containing the words active, response and/or training:
“All is changed. All looks strange to me and gives me a feeling which I would rather get away from, although I know it to be the carrying out of natural laws. And I am not complaining. I am doing the same as many old people have done, I suppose, who have led an active life and suddenly find themselves living without a purpose. Oh, my heart is so full. I could write a big book on the subject of going out of this world gracefully.”
—Maria D. Brown (1827–1927)
“Tears are sometimes an inappropriate response to death. When a life has been lived completely honestly, completely successfully, or just completely, the correct response to death’s perfect punctuation mark is a smile.”
—Julie Burchill (b. 1960)
“An educational method that shall have liberty as its basis must intervene to help the child to a conquest of liberty. That is to say, his training must be such as shall help him to diminish as much as possible the social bonds which limit his activity.”
—Maria Montessori (1870–1952)
