active killer training
is your team prepared?
Deliberate attacks on soft targets are increasing across the U.S. and they can happen anywhere: schools, office buildings, malls, churches, and event venues. These environments are often vulnerable because they’re open to the public, lack screening measures, and draw large crowds. While the probability may seem low, the consequences of an unprepared team can be catastrophic.
At Direct Action Training, we don’t believe in fear, we believe in preparation. Our Active Killer Response Training gives your people a tactical advantage through real-world strategies, tested protocols, and hands-on learning designed to save lives.
Why This matters
The consequences of a deliberate attack are devastating. But the good news? These events are predictable, preventable, and trainable. With the right strategies and protocols, organizations can significantly reduce their risk and protect lives.

​
-
