ACTIVE SHOOTER PREPAREDNESS WEBINAR

THIS IS NOT A TACTICAL TRAINING COURSE
The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), Region 4 (Alabama, Florida, Georgia,
Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Tennessee) invites you to join a two-hour
security webinar to enhance your organization’s resilience in case of an active shooter incident.
Preparing employees for a potential active shooter event is an integral component of an organization’s incident

knowing what to do in an active shooter situation can be the difference between life and death. Every second
counts.

Discuss the elements of active shooter incident response planning with guidance from expert
instructors.
Describe common behaviors, conditions, and situations associated with active shooter events.
Discuss how to recognize potential workplace violence indicators.
