In Support of Active Shooter Training
 

Resubmitted with corrections****

 

Review of Active Shooter pg.18

 

Overall, the Lesson Plan for the Active shooter is in depth and easy to follow. 

However, the only clarification is the sections that refer to Emergency Medical dispatch (2.4.16.9.1) EMD. It is unclear what is to be taught. Is that EMD gets suspended or how does a Communications Officer actually EMD these types of calls?  More clarification on this area needs to be addressed.

 

2.4.16.9.2 Add in the word Dispatcher " Tactical Emergency Dispatch Response Team"  This will ensure that no confusion that the TERT team is referring to dispatchers. 

 

The same information can be found on pg. 28 also.

 

I support adding Active Shooter Training to the Communications Basic Certification Training Program.
