Critical events happen every day, and technology is transforming how educational institutions respond and strengthen resiliency. A safe and secure campus environment for students, faculty, staff, and visitors requires much preparation throughout all phases of the incident lifecycle.

Aside from severe weather events and pandemics, active shooter response may be the most difficult challenge faced by campus safety. When normal operations become disrupted, communication and collaboration can be complex. Step away from disjointed processes and emerge into a phased approach to coordinate and manage the next critical event.

This webinar will discuss:

• Why integrating mitigation into recovery is key to creating greater resilience
• How multi-year preparedness activity planning can identify the capabilities needed to handle various threats
• Expanding your reach with the entire campus community during times of crisis
• Accelerating response with improved situational awareness to include life-saving incident-specific information
