Active Shooter/Trauma Response Training

What is Active Shooter/Trauma Response Training?

Prepare. Train. Survive.

When seconds count, training makes the difference. Our ACE Active Shooter & Trauma Response Training prepares individuals and organizations to react decisively, mitigate threats, and survive high-stress situations.

Using real-world tactics and scenario-based training, we teach how the body and mind react under extreme stress and how to train new, effective response habits.
