Lunch&Learn: Maximizing Survival During an Active Shooter Incident
Employers & schools find it difficult to train their personnel to be able to safely react in the event of an active shooter incident. Traditional approaches tend to have various flaws that may not ensure a successful outcome and can actually do more harm than good. Zachary Pugh, a police officer & the Owner/Chief Instructor of Pugh Self-Protection & Combatives, developed an alternative approach to traditional training that helps better maximize one’s chances of survival. The training is interactive with role players safely interacting with participants. This program also has been approved in January of 2023 by GST BOCES for any NYS public school to receive state-aid to train their staff & students. To date, Pugh Self-Protection & Combatives has trained 15 NYS schools districts using this state aid. We are also an approved vendor to offer the two-hour, in-person emergency drill training to PA schools per PCCD. Our program satisfies the OSHA General Duty Clause requirement as it relates to workplace violence.
