Are You Ready? Planning for Workplace Violence and Active Shooter Situations
featuring
Chris Grollnek
The Nation’s Leading Active Shooter Prevention Expert
As seen on Fox, CNN, ABC, NBC, CBS & More!

Why you should attend:

We can no longer say "It will never happen here."Active shooter events are the nation’s number one domestic terrorism threat according to the FBI. Local law enforcement will be crucial in a crisis. However, due to how quickly these violent acts unfold, it is imperative for business owners and managers develop a plan, and to also train the other first responders, their employees.

Chris will leverage his three decades of experience in law enforcement and security to provide practical approaches for businesses to understanding and preventing critical incidents. Preparedness is key, and Chris will identify steps you can take to secure your workplace, trainyour employees and how to react in extreme situations.
