According to a study done by the Educator’s School Safety Network, incidents of violence have increased 83% when comparing pre- and post-pandemic school years. And this is about more than guns — schools are threatened by possible explosive devices and detonations, fighting and outside intrusions.
To safeguard your school, you need to know about common threats and how to combat them before they become a larger issue. Is your school prepared for the unexpected? Do you know what to do if the unthinkable happens?
They’re tough questions to answer, but not thinking about them could cause serious harm. If you want a safer and more prepared facility, let our team come in and perform an educational threat assessment.

Our Stop the Bleed Course is a training program created by former US Army Special Operators and customized to fit the needs of civilians and the threats they face. The course focuses on teaching individuals how to quickly and effectively control life-threatening bleeding in emergency situations. The course equips participants with the skills to apply tourniquets, pack wounds, and use direct pressure to stop severe bleeding. It also introduces the MARCH algorithm—Massive Hemorrhage, Airway, Respiration, Circulation, Hypothermia/Head Injury—which is currently used by U.S. Special Operations Forces. This structured approach ensures that participants prioritize the most critical steps in trauma care, improving the chances of survival in emergencies.
The Active Shooter Course is a training program designed to prepare individuals for responding effectively during an active shooter incident. Taught by former U.S. Special Operators, the course covers strategies for recognizing and reacting to threats, including immediate actions to take when confronted with an active shooter. Participants are trained in the "Run, Hide, Fight" methodology: running to escape the situation if possible, hiding to avoid detection, and fighting back as a last resort if confronted by the shooter. The course also emphasizes how to assist law enforcement, evacuate safely, and provide first aid if needed, with the expertise of former Special Operators offering advanced tactical knowledge and practical insights for enhanced preparedness and response.
The Suspicious Activities Indicators Course is a training program created by US Army Special Operators and is designed to help individuals recognize and report behaviors or activities that may indicate potential threats or criminal activities. Participants learn to identify key signs of suspicious behavior, such as unusual surveillance, testing/probing of security, theft/loss/diversion, eliciting of information, breach/attempted intrusion, and sabotage/tampering/vandalism. The course also covers the Department of Homeland Security's "See Something, Say Something" indicators, which provide guidelines for recognizing and reporting potential threats effectively. Additionally, the training includes methods for documenting observations, assessing the credibility of threats, and notifying the appropriate authorities. This knowledge empowers individuals to contribute to preventing security incidents and maintaining safety in various environments.
A Basic Lifesaving Support (BLS) Course is a training program focused on teaching fundamental emergency care skills, including Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR), choking relief, and basic first aid. Participants learn how to perform CPR on adults, children, and infants, use Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs), and manage common medical emergencies. The course combines theoretical knowledge with hands-on practice to ensure proficiency in responding to life-threatening situations. Certification indicates that the participant can provide effective care until professional help arrives.
Basic Lifesaving Support Certification

The course covers the proper techniques for chest compressions, rescue breathing, and the use of automated external defibrillators (AEDs). Upon successful completion, participants receive a certification indicating their ability to perform CPR according to established guidelines.
Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) Certification
An AED Certification course is a training program that educates participants on how to properly use an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) during a cardiac emergency. The course covers the basics of recognizing signs of sudden cardiac arrest, how to operate the AED device, and the importance of early defibrillation in increasing survival rates. Participants learn how to assess the situation, safely deliver an electrical impulse to the heart to restore its normal rhythm, and integrate AED use with CPR techniques. Upon completion, participants receive a certification acknowledging their competency in using an AED effectively and confidently.
