Home » Insights » Security Expert Hits Costa Mesa With A L I V E Active Shooter Survival Training

MURRIETA, CA - Security Industry Expert Michael Julian of MPS Security, based out of southern Calif., will conduct his renowned A.L.I.V.E. active shooter survival training in Costa Mesa, Calif. on Tuesday, September 11, at 5 p.m. With an increasing amount of active shooter tragedies in the United States, it is crucial to know what to do if ever found in a situation like this. Michael is presenting to ACG corporate leaders, who are past, present and future "award winners" for exceptional growth, corporate citizenship, and more in the corporate arena. They're on the C-suite level and occupy CEO, COO, CFO, and board member positions. "Active shooter training is something that's becoming as normal as an earthquake or fire drill training," said Michael Julian, security expert at MPS Security. "This year alone there have been nearly 300 active shooter situations in our country and the number is only continuing to grow. Did you know that there are life altering steps you can take within the first 10 seconds of an active shooter that can keep you alive? Knowing what to do in this situation can save lives." Michael is a national instructor, a recognized expert in the security industry and author of a newly released book called 10 Minutes to Live in A.L.I.V.E. Active Shooter Survival Training, where he shares how essential the appropriate actions taken in the first 10 minutes of an active shooter event can be for survival. The A.L.I.V.E. Active Shooter Survival Training is a 2-hour workshop designed to educate, inform and prepare individuals who may come in contact with an active shooter. With increasing public violence employees and civilians are being vigilant about potential threats that they may come in contact with. According to the United States Department of Labor, Occupational Safety & Health Administration, nearly two million American workers report having been victims of workplace violence each year. Many additional cases are never reported. Between disgruntled employees, hateful defiance and unstable individuals, violence continues to be an ongoing theme in the media. While the arguments of increased gun control laws and Second Amendment rights are top of mind for Americans, being proactive and prepared is necessary. The September 11th ACG A.L.I.V.E. Active Shooter Survival Training will be held at the Irvine Spectrum (200 Spectrum Center Dr., #300, Irvine, CA 92618).
