Training is a critical component of school safety, security, emergency management, and preparedness. To support you in your training efforts — independent, in-person, and virtual — the REMS TA Center created materials for you to use on your own and/or at your site. These downloadable modules are intended for education agencies to use to train teams and supplement training programs. They contain presentations with speaker’s notes, instructions, resource lists, and, in some cases, tabletop exercises. For practitioners who wish to assemble all of the training materials into a binder, the REMS TA Center has created a cover page and table of contents for all modules, except the supplemental exercise and training packages.
