CMMA February Meeting 2022
CMMA Breakfast Meeting: Active Shooter situation- Meeting at Moose Lodge in Waite Park.
Topic: How to survive an active threat/ shooter situation
Speakers: Drew Moldenhauer & Rich Webb, Blue Ethos
At the CMMA breakfast meeting on February 24, basic and easy to remember skills will be taught on how to survive an encounter. Through case studies, members will learn from past events on what has worked and what has not.
Blue Ethos Specialized Training is dedicated to providing active threat and preparedness training to public and private entities. We do this by improving safety and security, being prepared to handle an external or internal threat, and teaching rapid response techniques. We teach students/employees basic de-escalation tactics and show them pre-attack indicators of active shooters.
· Profiles: You will learn about common motives and ideologies of an Active Shooter, along with learning how to identify warning signs and proper paths for intervention including de-escalation.
· Threat Assessment: We will provide company examples of a threat assessment at the property. This includes photos of the building, a safe meeting location for your staff, and safety tips customized to your facility.
· Fear/Intuition: Attendees will learn how to listen to their intuition and realize that during an Active Threat their fear response will help them survive. Tools will be given to avoid worry and anxiety and focus on mentally preparing.
· Body Language and Pre attack indicators: Attendees will learn how to read the body language of a person that is about to attack them. The non verbals will tell us a lot more than the verbals.
· De Escalation: Attendees will learn how to de-escalate a situation when someone is becoming irrational. Attendees will learn words to avoid in certain situations, and how to get people to calm down their irrational behavior.
