Refine Your Campus-wide Efforts to Report, Assess & Defuse Unusual or Suspicious Behavior
Institutions continue to seek guidance on how to best manage their campus behavioral threat assessment and intervention teams, including the development of a comprehensive training process, team operations, response protocols, documentation processes, funding, and delegation of authority.
Our expert presenter – Dr. Meggen Sixbey, Assistant Director at the University of Florida’s Police Department and Master Trainer in Behavioral Threat Assessment and Management for the Department of Homeland Security – provides strategic areas for consideration regarding the real issues and concerns encountered by the teams backed in benchmarking, literature and consultation with threat assessment professionals.
