We help organizations create training that prepares staff to respond safely and appropriately to emergencies. Our courses cover core policies and guidance in the context of real-life situations, using dynamic content to present scenarios, case studies, and examples of best practices to convey practical concepts. We form collaborative teams consisting of instructional designers, e-learning developers, emergency planners, and emergency operations experts to design training tailored to client needs. Our expertise covers a wide range of hazards, including workplace dangers, chemical spills, environmental hazards, public transportation emergencies, active shooter incidents, flooding and other natural disasters, health risks, and many more.
