IN-APCO Hosts: Active Threat Communications w/Tracy Ertl & HeroLight Training

Come join us and Tracy Ertl with HeroLight Training for an 8-hour course on Active Threat Communications. This course is intented for 911 professionals of all experience levels and responsibilities.

Course Description:

Active threat calls have become numbingly common over the last decade, regardless of community size. This course will help dispatchers, call takers, supervisors, and those who support prepare to work against these threats - full-scale active shooters, cases of vehicle ramming, or cutting attacks. The internationally recognized 6-step pathway to active assailant violence and the rapid response, rapid deployment response model will be taught. Also covered will be mechanisms to detract from vehicle ramming and the reason that assailants are increasing the use of cutting instruments. This course will also address improvised explosive devices (IEDs) as they can be a diversionary tactic for a larger-scale attack, or they may be the mechanism of attack.

Students will be updated on the latest what we know about call-taking and dispatch techniques during an active threat call. Supervisors will receive information on how you manage the room and channels, while the administration will receive plans to guide the aftermath and long-term health of the agency. Our Founder, Tracy Ertl, was first exposed to active threat calls in 2007 while in Omaha, Nebraska, during their December mall active shooter. Attendees will be brought to that scene via recovered video narrated by Ertl.
