“I have the responsibility for all State Buildings & personnel within two counties as well as the responsibility of leading our Special response teams. This training will aid in the training and information we disseminate to our partners & personnel.”

“In working with the general population daily, and consistently being surrounded by individuals seeking mental health services, this course will help me be more aware in my day-to-day job and help to keep me and my colleagues safe.”

“Great pace, excellent presentation style, appropriate to a wide variety of employment, and trauma- informed.”

“This class was great, and the instructors were engaging. I really enjoyed all of the videos and the opportunity to practice these skills in real-time. Thank you!”

“Really well done! Definitely will take these skills back to my workplace and in my personal life.”

“It was very helpful, especially to my work, where I interact with clients/ patients on a daily basis.”

“I thought the class was great! I would love for schools to use your services.”

“Learning to avoid, because I feel I have to do something to help others, as well as myself.”

“I believe the information provided in this training can be easily applied to many situations that exist in normal day-to-day life.”

“This was really great training. Great presenters, prepared, and very valuable!”

“I am very aware of my surroundings, this helped me see my instincts can be useful and helpful, and while I can't always think everyone is a threat, it is important to act if I feel someone is acting extra strange, it could save lives!”

“I will look for deviations and then assess if there is a threat. Good reminder to trust your gut, and pay attention to something not looking right”

“It's a great reminder to be more aware of surroundings and potential threats. Since leaving the military, I think I've been less alert in some ways. But now more than ever, we need to stay aware to stay safe!”

“This course will provide a baseline for my organization and improve communication on risks while allowing for similar terminology and methodology to be used.”

“I liked the explanations and examples that were more non-military than military. Often Tactical Jargon bogs down good clean explanations. Nice Job!!”

“This course has helped me to be more observant of the behavior of others. Which in turn will benefit my own safety (and the safety of others) and allow me to be better at my job.”

“While I have years of experience in assessing situations, this course provided clear and concise instructions for helping establish a baseline in unfamiliar surroundings.”

“It provided useful information to keep in mind when I'm in environments that could involve unsafe situations.”

“Situational awareness on-site is key, just some tools to help keep heads on a swivel and look out for each other.”

“Course techniques will help me keep myself aware and safe, as well as use the tactics learned in this course to keep employee safe at work.”

“The skills taught during this course have given me a better understanding of filtering and creating a baseline while out in busy public environments.”

“They provide a systematic and effective process for identifying potential threats and aid aspects of personal security.”

“They provide a structured method, which I can articulate. The method enhances my ability to determine a baseline, and to explain why an individual is a person of interest.”

“My routine assignments require the observation of persons within my facility. By understanding a baseline and being able to articulate that baseline, I am better prepared to complete reports and investigations relative to my observations and deviations from our facility baseline.”

“Our mission is to reduce crime and improve the quality of life through a partnership with all citizens. After taking this course, I have learned tools and techniques to make me a better officer and a better trainer; which in turn will help keep our citizens safe from threats.”

“I am often watching people and their behavior and now have a better understanding of indicators that a person may be armed.”

“We use these techniques everyday, but many of us have never been able to articulate the "why" in what we see. This program gives us a way to describe and explain what took us years to observe. This is going to be fantastic for our new officers, who will have the fortune of learning this without having to wait for years to experience it.”
