The  Department of Homeland Security (DHS) announces the availability of a 
new  Independent Study Course titled: Active Shooter, What You Can Do

cases,  there is no pattern or method to their selection of  victims.”

managers  and employees, so they can prepare to respond to an active shooter 
 situation.   
The  Active Shooter course was developed by the Office of Infrastructure  
Protection through a collaborative process that included representatives from 
 the Commercial Facilities Sectorand FEMA EMI.  Development also included  
consultation with the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center.   
The course  is self-paced and takes about 45 minutes to complete. Upon 
completion of  Active Shooter, What You Can Do, employees and managers will be 
able  to: 
·          Describe  the actions to take when confronted with an active 
shooter and responding law  enforcement officials. 
·          Recognize  potential workplace violence indicators. 
·          Describe  actions to take to prevent and prepare for potential 
active shooter  incidents. 
·          Describe  how to manage the consequences of an active shooter  
incident. 
A certificate from FEMA EMI is awarded to  participants who complete the 
course and pass a short final exam.   
This is the second  in a series of critical  infrastructure cross-sector 
training courses; DHS announced the availability  of IS-906, Workplace 
Security Awareness, in early March. Access IS-906  on the FEMA EMI Web site:
