The answer is simple…no. You can’t say you know how to drive a car if you’ve only sat in a classroom and have never been behind the wheel. This is why active shooter simulation training is imperative for employees. The ASST program was designed to prepare employees to survive an active shooter assault in their workplace. Our workplace active shooter response training program provides employees with the necessary skills to handle such critical situations.

Survival is the focus of the ASST programs. ASST Trainers are not trying to create heroes. They are trying to keep people alive. Our workplace violence, response & active shooter simulation training program (ASST) is approximately 70% physical activity, which includes simulated mock active shooter drills in the form of hands-on training with weapon disarms, and approximately 30% interactive discussions and questions. ASST Trainers provide a more specialized, more effective training regimen than other programs on the market.

ASST Trainers would never suggest staff throw knives, scissors, or fire extinguishers at an intruder with an assault weapon. Instead, they use active simulations to train participants in techniques for disarming the attacker. Training also includes critical care protocols to assist the wounded. Trainers also save time for Q & A, and when time permits, they share real combat stories from the battlefield or provide insights into various intelligence programs and strategies. Training is far from boring the way classroom instruction, online courses and law enforcement lectures typically are.
