Participants get an opportunity to freshen up their skills by learning about what steps they can take to keep themselves and their teams safe during emergency situations where they may be asked to shelter-in-place, or evacuate. We will share specific actions to help individuals verbally de-escalate situations using proven strategies, critically think about how to respond during an active shooter situation, and increase their fire safety knowledge. Life Safety Leadership Training is a preparedness tool designed to help both the individual and teams navigate emergency situations.
