Customized Active Shooter Training

GXC will deliver Customized Active Shooter and awareness training to your facility's staff to ensure they are trained and prepared shall the worst ever arise. Training will be delivered by the GXC CEO who was a Senior Executive within the Department of Homeland Security. GXC’s CEO is Level III Certified in the Department of Homeland Security, as well as a former sworn Law Enforcement Officer. This training has been developed, approved and endorsed by a Department of Homeland Security Federal Law Enforcement Training Center Instructor.

Our training is conducted in five phases. Each phase will allow you and your staff to better understand and react if an active shooter event were to ever occur. If a situation like this ever occurs, thinking is the last thing one should be doing as it takes away precious moments which could be used to get themselves to safety. Our training program is delivered by a former Department of Homeland Security Executive who has trained thousands of Federal Employees on the same interagency security committee driven criteria.
