Active Shooter Training for Churches
Unfortunately, houses of faith and places of worship are common settings for violent events like mass shootings. Prime Defense Training leads the way in terms of firearms and active shooter training. We provide AVERT (Active Violence Emergency Response Training) programs to make sure people are not caught off guard in the event a mass shooting occurs. Our active shooter training for churches and places of worship can make a life-saving difference.
Learn How to React with Active Shooter Training
With an AVERT active shooter training program through Prime Defense, church leaders and volunteers will be able to create an emergency preparedness plan if a situation with a shooter ever occurs. By going through a dynamic training program that involves real-life scenarios, participants are exposed to different situations that can arise if an attack ever occurs. This ensures less time passes during an event, which can save a lot of lives. The participants will learn about unique and necessary objectives, such as:
- How to know when it is best to evade or escape
- How to identify signs that a potential individual could be a threat
- How to safely stop a shooter in a church setting
- How to get members of the church to safe locations or barricaded from a shooter
Train Church Leaders and Volunteers for Emergencies
AVERT firearms training programs prepare different members of the staff, such as church leaders, volunteers, and even members who want to participate in how to respond during a shooting event. These tactics can be valuable for all places of worship, including churches, synagogues, temples, and other sacred gathering places where the public comes together. Participants will walk away from training sessions armed with valuable insight and be exposed to different real-life scenarios that could take place. Therefore, they will be better prepared to respond if an event ever does occur.
Save Lives with Emergency Response Tactics

During active shooter training for places of worship, individuals are exposed to the essential concepts of emergency first aid. When a violent event occurs, many individuals can be in need of life-saving intervention to ensure they are kept stable until help arrives. Injuries stemming from gunshot wounds can quickly become dire due to excessive bleeding. When members of the congregation and church leaders know how to react and provide the right level of care to control the bleeding, this can be a tremendous effort to ensure lives are saved.
