About this event

Audience: Students, Faculty/Staff. Check eligibility/registration.; An active shooter is defined as an armed individual who has used deadly force and continues to pose a threat by having access to additional victims. While active shooter incidents on college campuses are uncommon, past tragedies at Virginia Tech and Northern Illinois University highlight the importance of being prepared for emergencies. This training program, developed for all 35 institutions within the University System of Georgia, includes a 10-minute instructional video and a training scenario. Its purpose is to equip faculty and staff with practical emergency response options should they encounter an active shooter situation on campus or within the community.; Organizer/contact: Georgia State University event organizer; Evidence: data/event-sources/atlanta-20260918/168b08c60a37e1c198a39fb8.html; Collection method: Localist public API; October pages and dated instances
