Why Do I Need Active Shooter Training?

An active shooter is any individual who is actively shooting or attempting to shoot people in a crowded or constrained environment. Incidents involving active shooters can quickly escalate or change without any warning. During the chaos, anyone can play a significant role in reducing the effects of the incident. 

Active shooter situations are unpredictable and dynamic. When it comes to the victims of an active shooter, there is rarely any pattern or method to the selection. Because of this, you should be emotionally and physically prepared to handle an active shooter situation in any public place. This will also significantly reduce the likelihood of injury and fatality, especially since these situations are over in an average of 10 to 15 minutes and, normally, before law enforcement reaches the scene.

Do Standards Require Active Shooter Preparedness Training?

OSHA does not have any specific standards regarding active shooter training. However, they do acknowledge the value of employee preparedness when it comes to active shooter situations. Under the General Duty Clause, however, OSHA does require employers to maintain a safe and healthful work environment for their employees. This includes avoiding workplace violence such as active shooter situations. 

Due to this, employers must provide their employees with safety procedures and training courses. These resources should help to teach employees about what to do in an active shooter situation. 

What To Do In An Active Shooter Situation

One of the best-known response plans for active shooter situations is run, hide, fight. This specific program has been widely adopted as the standard protocol for active shooter events. We are not suggesting that the actions run, hide, and fight be taken in that order. Sometimes, it might be safer to perform one before another. 

Make your best determination of what is happening and which of the options below will provide the greatest degree of security for you. Running, hiding, or fighting could be an appropriate initial response, depending on the circumstances. Run when it’s safe to run. Hide when it’s safe to hide. Fight if you have no other options.

Run 

If you have access to an escape path, attempt to evacuate yourself and others. There may be routes mapped out for you; use them if they are safe. If not, think of another way out that keeps you away from the area where the shooter may be. Leave your belongings behind. Your purse, jacket, and cell phone are not as important as your life. 

Hide

Sometimes, evacuating isn’t possible. Perhaps the shooter has blocked the nearest exit, or maybe you don’t even know where the nearest exit is. Whatever the reason, if you cannot evacuate, then you should hide if it is safest. Your hiding place should be where the active shooter is less likely to find you. Find an inconspicuous spot that is out of the normal flow of foot traffic. Try to find a hiding place that would protect you if shots are fired in your direction.

Fight

You should never seek out an active shooter and instigate a confrontation. Only resort to fighting if you or others are in immediate danger. If there are other people with you who do not want to fight back, do not force them to do so. If you are in this situation, your first step is to try to remain calm. Many people who thought they could never be able to defend themselves or others have done so when needed. You can, too. Remember your survival mindset and fully commit to defending your life with physical action.

Online Safety Training FAQs

What does each online class cover?

Generally speaking, each course covers an overview of the topic, detailed explanation of relevant equipment, safe operating practices, common hazards to avoid, and hazard control measures.

How long is the course?

Trainees go at their own pace, but in general each class (including the exam) takes anywhere from 2 to 2.5 hours. We recommend planning for two or more so you don’t end up rushing through the exam.

Are these courses OSHA-aligned?

All Hard Hat Training online courses were designed to adhere to OSHA and ANSI training requirements. But it is important to understand that by OSHA-aligned, we mean it follows best practices and safety principles put forth by OSHA. In an online format, it is not possible to cover every code for every situation or hazard across every industry. For this reason, our safety training solutions are tools to further knowledge and help employers train and/or certify their crew.

However, just because a course or program is OSHA-aligned does not necessarily mean a company will be aligned or avoid citations if OSHA were to audit them. There is much more that goes into collective company alignment with OSHA. For example, workers need to be observed applying what they learned in the classroom in the field. This observation/practical exam should be done by trainers, supervisors, or other designated competent persons. Whether you use our training kits or online courses, we provide guides to help employers do this.

Other steps for ultimate alignment may include but are not limited to addressing with your crew any gaps in the training or additional hazards specific to your work situation; creating, training on, and enforcing written safety programs (also known as plans or procedures); and performing regular inspections and risk assessments.

Are the e-learning classes up-to-date with OSHA standards?

Yes, Hard Hat Training online courses incorporate the latest OSHA standards. As standards change, we make changes to the courses.

Does this course certify or qualify me?

There is a lot of confusion among operators and even companies about what it means to be certified or qualified. Simply put, no, a course does not certify anyone. It is the employer’s responsibility to make sure an employee is properly trained, and it is also his or her responsibility to say when the employee is “qualified” or “competent.” Our online courses and training kits are just a tool to help them in doing so.

According to OSHA, proper training must include a classroom portion, including a written exam, as well as a practical hands-on portion/exam wherein the operator is observed operating the machine. Our courses provide the classroom portion of the training. The safety administrator of the company will have access to a checklist which can be used to observe the trainee on the machine. When done successfully, the administrator signs the bottom of the form. At this point, unless further training is required by your employer, you have done everything required by OSHA to be considered by your employer as “qualified” or “competent.”

If I pass this class and exam, can I take my certification and get a job anywhere?

See “Does this course certify or qualify me?” This will depend on your employer. Remember, it is their responsibility to see that you are trained and if there is ever an accident, it is they who will have to prove to OSHA that they trained you sufficiently. Because of this, while some smaller businesses may simply accept your certificate and a copy of your test, they will often require you to go through their own training program. This is their right to do so. It is their further responsibility to train you in accordance with the job, site, equipment, etc.

How long is the training good for?

The timeframe for how long training remains valid depends on the specific topic and OSHA training guidelines. Heavy machinery operators, for instance, need to recertify every three years, while other training courses may have different renewal periods. The expiration date for each training course will be printed on your certificate of completion for reference so you know when to take the training again.

Will I get a certificate?

Yes, upon successful completion of the course and exam, you will have immediate online access to your certificate of completion. You have the option to download the practical evaluations for your specific course. Although the practical evaluation is not required for you to earn online course completion credit, we strongly recommend completing it under the supervision of your employer to ensure your mastery of the safety training topics.

How many people can use this course? Can I play it for several employees at the same time?

Only one employee can take the course. There are many reasons for this, but most importantly, the course is designed to train one employee per OSHA regulations. Also, there is an online final exam at the end that will be linked to the trainee assigned. OSHA requires proof of training, and if multiple people were to sit in on that one course, they would not get credit for taking it.

Are SCORM/Tin Can options available for use on our own company LMS?

All our online courses are SCORM-compatible and can be easily uploaded to your company’s current SCORM-compliant LMS using our SCORM Cloud dispatch service. We do not offer direct SCORM file access to our courses. If you would like more information about how SCORM dispatch works and whether it would be a good fit for your business needs, please contact our sales team at (888) 360-8764.

Can I become a Hard Hat Training reseller?

We do have reseller options available. Visit Become a Hard Hat Safety Affiliate Partner to learn more.

How do I look up my certificate of completion?

So, you have already purchased a course from us, taken the online training, and passed the certification exam with flying colors. Now what?

Simply print a copy of your course completion certificate for your employer and keep a copy for your records. You can log in to your LMS account anytime to print your certificate after you have completed the training.
