Description

Active Shooter Training event hosted by the University at Albany's College of Emergency Preparedness, Homeland Security & Cybersecurity in conjunction with the FBI - Albany. This event is open to the private sector and community partners. Capacity is limited to 50 people. Active Shooter Attack Prevention and preparedness (ASAPP) is a two-hour course created by the FBI Office of Partner Engagement’s Violence Reduction Unit. The goal of ASAPP training is to empower participants with the knowledge and skills necessary to survive an active shooter incident in any environment (i.e., office, shopping center, house of worship, school, or government building). ASAPP combines lessons learned from years of research of active shooter incidents with interactive training techniques to create a concise, impactful, and relevant course. During the course, attendees actively participate in a live and informative multimedia presentation. Additionally, they observe in-person demonstrations, then complete two scenarios to practice the decision-making process and actions necessary to survive an active shooter incident.
