PUPD to offer free active threat training in September

The Purdue University Police Department offers free, in-person training classes for potential active shooter/threat events.

The Civilian Response to Active Shooter Events (CRASE) class provides strategies, guidance and plan options for surviving an active threat event. Topics include the history and prevalence of active shooter events, civilian response options, and preparing in advance what your response will be. CRASE was designed by Advanced Law Enforcement Rapid Response Training in 2004.

The upcoming sessions are:

• Friday, Sept. 6: 9:30-11:30 a.m., in LAMB 105 (Lambert Field House, 800 W. Stadium Ave.).
• Tuesday, Sept. 24: 8:30-10:30 a.m., in LILY 3410 (Lilly Hall of Life Sciences, 915 Mitch Daniels Blvd.).

The same information is contained in each of the CRASE training sessions, so please register for only one.

To register, contact Lt. Sarah Clark at sclark32@purdue.edu and indicate the preferred session.

Affiliation with Purdue is not required to register; however, priority will be given to Purdue faculty, staff, students and affiliates.
