An active shooter is defined as an individual who is actively engaged in killing or attempting to kill people in a place of business or school. In most cases, active shooters use a firearm and display no pattern or method for the selection of their victims. Active shooters at the work place have become very prevalent over the last few years. A common misconception is that most active shooter incidents occur in schools. Statistics shows that less than 25% of shootings occur in schools. The remaining 75% occur in doctors’ offices, grocery stores, gas stations, churches, day cares and just about any other place of business. [/vc_column_text]

"I had recently taken the Proactive Securities, LLC training. Well, I have to say that the 3 instructors, Brad Hershey, Jessie Moyer, and Tom Reed and their years of training on the police/task force followed by their expertise; did an OUTSTANDING presentation with their training and knowledge on what to do if you are ever in that situation. From attending the program I am more aware of my surroundings and what I need to do to protect myself and my co-workers if an active shooter would enter our office. I would recommend employers of businesses to take advantage of offering this program to the employees. Thank you for opening up my eyes that this can happen to you when least expected!"

"Proactive Securities training has provided many of us with the knowledge and empowerment that we previously did not have prior to attending this class. The training was very professional, surreal, and well taught. It was obvious to all that a lot of time and passion was put forth in our day spent with the trainers. If any Employer has not had the opportunity to send employees to this training, I strongly would recommend doing so.

"I truly enjoyed the Armed Intruder seminar put on by Proactive Securities, LLC. It made me aware of things I should be taking notice to when I am in the workplace and out with my family. You should always be aware of your surroundings and the dangers of the unknown and untrained for these shooter situations. Unfortunately, more of these scenarios are playing out on a more frequent basis. I feel more confident that I will be more prepared if the occasion arises. The safety of my co-workers and family are my top priority and this training now makes me feel prepared. Thank you to the expert trainers at Proactive Securities."
