Planning for an Emergency Response: More than just a Document! Webinar

Having a plan everyone knows, understands, and can carry out is essential to the safety of any workplace, school, or cultural site. Emergency Action, Event Safety, & Emergency Management Plans are more than fancy words and flowery charts in a binder.  It must be practical and useable by anyone.

Plan development is fluid, changing and morphing for each event, action, or incident. Getting staff and the C-suite to buy in and follow the plan before, during, and after any event or incident is essential. This presentation will cover developing plans and making them user-friendly; training, tabletops, and scenarios will give your team, employees, and C-suite hands-on experience so they can react to your plan.

This presentation will cover developing plans and training teams to follow the plans, so that if bad things happen, they will know how to respond and react. This will include scenario development and discussions on training methods. Including areas where events may often occur that would require security planning; I.E. cultural events, school events, public activities etc. 

Learning Objectives

Upon completion, participants will be able to:

• Participants will have basic understanding of plan development and creation. 
• Participants will take away ideas for training and hands-on practice of plans. 
• Participants will have ideas for enhancing safety and security within their areas of operation.
