B.E.C.O.N. NEWS

ACTIVE SHOOTER PREPAREDNESS COURSE DEVELOPED

BSR Training Center invited various business management personnel, place of worship administrators, healthcare professionals, school faculty and Law Enforcement/ Security Officers to each of the courses. The 1-dayB.E.C.O.N. course was provided every month for four months (May, June, July and August of 2018), free of cost to the participants. Businesses such as DALB inc., Hospice, Chem Pak, Bloomery Plantation Distillery, Dept. of Homeland Security, Board of Education, Prince William County Public Schools, Law Enforcement Organizations, St. James Church, County Commission, Big Cork Vinyards were in attendance. The B.E.C.O.N. Emergency Preparedness Course was presented to nearly 100 participants during this four months.
Statistically, workplace/commercial businesses hold the highest percentage of ASE occurrences since the early 2000’s. One could attribute this to lack of training.
BSR Training Center’s Active Shooter Course- B.E.C.O.N. is not a online push-button course. This course provides a reality based, hands-on, proactive training needed to build confidence and retention individually and collectively as an organization. It also identifies contingencies in the organization while assisting in the development of an effective Emergency Response Plan that includes proactive training regimen.
