Description

Retail locations are considered “soft targets” because they are open to the public, which makes preparation and awareness critical during an active shooter emergency. This Active Shootings in Retail: Prevention and Survival training teaches employees how to recognize warning signs of potential violence, respond quickly using the Run. Hide. Fight. model, guide customers to safety, and work effectively with first responders during a crisis. Participants learn practical prevention strategies, emergency response actions, and situational awareness techniques that can reduce risk and help save lives in high-stress situations. 

This training helps retail employees act quickly and confidently during emergencies while strengthening prevention awareness that supports safer retail workplaces.
