Active Shooter Level II Train-the-Trainer
This course is intended to provide additional training on active-shooter incident response. This course focuses on training first responders in ways to quickly enter into harm’s way to neutralize the shooter and save the lives of innocent victims in an active shooter event. In many circumstances, formally trained medical personnel will not or cannot be on the scene immediately to provide casualty care to wounded victims. This is a train-the-trainer course, that offers hands-on involvement, and DOES NOT require Level I ALERRT training as a prerequisite (additional course description below).

Full Course Description
“The fate of the wounded rests with the one who applies the first dressing.” (Nicholas Senn, M.D. 1898) First responders are being trained to quickly enter into harm’s way to neutralize the shooter and save the lives of innocent victims in an active shooter event. In many circumstances, formally trained medical personnel will not or cannot be on the scene immediately to provide casualty care to wounded victims. First responders must be educated and trained in immediate casualty care techniques to save lives. The course includes Tactical Emergency Casualty Care (TECC)-based self‑aid and buddy‑aid techniques as well as force‑on‑force mass casualty scenarios where participants will not only have to neutralize the shooter but also treat the wounded.
The train-the-trainer course includes the complete delivery of the Active Shooter Level II course of study as well as instructional techniques and methodology for delivering the course, scenario development, safety protocols and procedures, graded participant teach backs, graded skills assessments, remediation, course critiques, and evaluations. Participants are provided with all lesson plans, PowerPoint presentations, student manuals, and related courseware so that they are immediately prepared to deliver the Active Shooter Level II course at their home agency.
