ALICE Instructor Certification Training

ALICE (Alert, Lockdown, Inform, Counter, Evacuate) Training is the leading program for response to violent critical incidents (VCI). VCI are man-made forms of violent disasters, including; active shooter, violent intruder, mass shooting, terrorism, workplace violence, and other unexpected tragedies. 

The mission of ALICE is to save lives. Our training program empowers individuals to participate in their own survival using proactive options-based response strategies when faced with violence. Participating in ALICE Instructor Certification provides you with the training necessary to teach others these lifesaving strategies.

At the end of this course, the participants should be able to: 

• Describe the history of active shooter events in America. 
• Discuss how the traditional Lockdown-only strategy became a standard response. 
• Discuss the history of options-based responses. 
• Identify the research and documents which support proactive, options-based strategies and training for civilians. 
• Understand what trauma-informed training means and how to properly identify and avoid re-traumatizing any individual in the training that may have an adverse change in behavior due to personal trauma. 
• Explain how Alert, Lockdown, Inform, Counter, and Evacuate strategies work and can be implemented. Apply ALICE Training as part of Organization Certification for their organization, through a blended learning model consisting of eLearning and hands-on- demonstrations, practical scenarios, critical thinking drills, and evacuation drills. 
• Properly implement age and ability appropriate training to ensure all individuals in your organization or community are properly informed based on their cognitive, emotional, and physical capacities.
