| LET223 | Active Attack Emergency Communications | Quick View Course Description
LET223 – Active Attack Emergency CommunicationsOver the past twenty years, active attack response training has focused on training law enforcement to arrive quickly on scene and engage violent suspects. In recent years that focus has shifted to the fire and EMS community with the introduction of different casualty evacuation models. This course expands the focus to include another vital part of the community response team: telecommunicators. Each link in this survival chain is important. Our response system must move through the chain as quickly as possible, even with the myriad of variables that can make it difficult. What saves lives in these events is rapid stabilization and transport to definitive care. Telecommunicators, are uniquely positioned to help speed the team towards this goal. This course was designed in conjunction with Advanced Law Enforcement Rapid Response Training (ALERRT) to provide telecommunicators, first responders, and other professionals with information on effective dispatching to better prepare them to save lives and reduce chaos in an active attack event. This course meets Texas Commission on Law Enforcement (TCOLE) requirements for #78052.
