ACTIVE SHOOTER (CNIC-TRTAS-1.1) TRAINING AND
READINESS
You have just finished The Active Shooter online training course. You review the
references and make a note to start preparations in the near future. You overhear
a conversation a disgruntled employee is having with a fellow co-worker. They
sound very negative and borderline threatening at times. You do not really think
anything of it until you hear one man mention taking "drastic measures" to stick it
to the Command. You consider your next move. Should you tell your supervisor
about this conversation? - ANSWER-Yes, while it may not appear like a
threatening situation, the supervisor should be made aware of the conversation.
You decide to tell your supervisor about the conversation. She tells you that she
will take the conversation into consideration and talk with someone in Human
Resources.
You hear gun shots followed by screaming and yelling coming from down the hall.
With shots fired and people screaming, you recognize you have an Active Shooter
situation and you must respond now and quickly. What is your initial response? -
ANSWER-Evacuate. Directly exit the building immediately.
You have found the nearest stairwell and have started your exit. As you pass the
third floor, you encounter a fellow co-worker who has sprained her ankle in an
attempt to flee. Noting that your co-worker will have a difficult time using the
stairs, you realize you must take action. What do you do? - ANSWER-Help your co-
worker. You decide to help her to safety.
