An active shooter is an individual actively engaged in killing or attempting to kill in a confined and populated area using firearms, with no apparent method in selecting victims. Preparations for an active shooter situation can range from little planning to extensive pre-planning involving procuring weapons, conducting surveillance, setting booby traps, and blocking exits to maximize casualties. The most common victims are those with a current or former workplace relationship to the attacker, though no group is safe, and the most likely targets are schools, outdoor areas, and businesses.

Tabletop Exercise for Managing an Active Shooter ScenarioDon Haverty
This is a brief overview of what constitutes an "Active Shooter", citing some examples and looking at the circumstances surrounding them. We later lay out a template for an organization to conduct their own tabletop exercise to begin formulating a response plan.
An average of 551 workers per year are killed as a result of work-related homicides, according to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics, and shootings account for more than three-quarters of these homicides. It’s important for anyone in human resources, corporate security, and every level of management to be trained in how to respond to an active shooter attack. Active shooter response teaches you and your staff how to escape, find cover, or fight back to increase your odds of survival.
You will elarn:
- How physical security measures can be a deterrent/preventative measure
- Important "Delay Tactics" and how to use them to increase positive outcomes
- How to identify the best escape routes and safe areas in your facility
- How to fight back when there is no other alternative
With a thorough understanding, some preventative measures and some rehearsing, your organization can apply the best practice of preparedness to be better able to effectively predict, prevent, and respond to the growing threat of an active shooter situation on your premises.
Knowledge is power. This is not something to avoid out of fear. Through this presentation you can learn more about the incidents and the perpetrators as well as the steps to being as prepared as possible.
