Active Shooter Training
Go Beyond Active Shooter Response Training
When violence occurs, seconds count, and you can't always wait for EMS to arrive. Our training enables you to become an immediate responder. With HSI’s dynamic Active Violence Emergency Response Training (AVERT), you’ll empower your team to help save lives in the event of an urgent threat or emergency.
In addition to active shooter response training, your organization will learn to react to life-threatening blood-loss situations.

When time is critical
Uncontrolled bleeding is a serious emergency. Blood loss due to trauma is a leading cause of preventable death in the United States. If care is delayed, even by a few minutes, uncontrolled bleeding can quickly become life-threatening.
When active violence occurs, time is critical to survival. Being able to react quickly and with confidence is vital to saving lives.
