Bystander Active Shooter Education (B.A.S.E) course was devolved after careful consideration of recent trends in law enforcement and first responder activity related to Active Shooter Events. The B.A.S.E course takes an alternative approach that is both practical and purposeful. Our doctrine makes rapid use of assets within the Active Shooter Event to initiate basic life-saving measures. We recognize that although police and SWAT response times are improving, by the time a scene is declared safe for medical personnel to approach it may already be too late for some.  A person can “bleed out” in as little as 3 minutes, but with some very basic training anyone can help to extend that time to 10,15, or even 30 minutes or longer.

 The B.A.S.E course is directed to everyone whose primary work environment involves easy public access. Increasing the risk of involvement to an active shooter event. The training is designed to engage and enforce simple life-saving techniques with a very low cost.

Each course covers a variety of short, simple topics which provide students the tools needed to save lives – perhaps even their own – at any time when assistance by first responders is delayed.

Our staff are made up of experienced professionals that bring each element of B.A.S.E training to the lay person in such a way that maximum knowledge retention is not only achieved but maintained.

Houses of worship, once a place of refuge are no longer off limits when it comes to active shooter mass casualty events. To date there has been 15 incidents in houses of worship that have resulted members being killed or injured and more recently 26 in Texas and 1 in Tennessee. Most places of worship now have Active Shooter plans and even security to help mitigate the threat. However, the delay in primary care will be delayed and others will sadly die waiting for help. The Bystander Active Shooter Education course is a great course to provide your staff and your congregation the lifesaving skills in addition be taught what they should do, and when they should do it, skills that may become helpful should an event occur when someone opens fire on the innocent.
