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:
“So hills and valleys into singing break;
And though poor stones have neither speech nor tongue,
While active winds and streams both run and speak,
Yet stones are deep in admiration.
Thus praise and prayer here beneath the Sun
Make lesser mornings when the great are done.”
—Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)
“Parents’ accepting attitudes can help children learn to be open and tolerant. Parents can explain unfamiliar behavior or physical handicaps and show children that the appropriate response to differences should be interest rather than revulsion.”
—Dian G. Smith (20th century)
“At present I feel like a caged animal, bound up by the luxury, comfort and respectability of my position. I can’t get the training that I want without neglecting my duty.”
—Beatrice Potter Webb (1858–1943)
