How did you spend your weekend?

This group of Oak Lawn-Hometown District 123 teachers gave up their Saturday to get certified in and with Beacon Training Group!

Have you been trained in EBRS? Share this post and comment about your experience to spread the word!

They may be a small staff, but they are mighty after being trained in at Jackson Creek Fellowship Church!

Does your child’s school still use lockdown only for active shooter response training?

It is a common misconception that hands-on training is “too scary” for teachers. In reality, hiding with no options is the scary part. Teachers trained in EBRS have consistently given feedback that lockdown training has left them with PTSD, but EBRS has left them feeling empowered and
confident they can help keep their students safe.

Have you been trained in EBRS? Leave your comments below to help other schools and districts realize that this is the training to have!

Apparently if you’re lucky, EBRS classes get the bonus “dad dance” lesson from Craig.

Proof of concept - Is Beacon able to train schools at scale? It is the question we get asked a lot.

We just finished training ten different entities over the last three weeks; nine were schools. Two of those schools had a hundred teachers present at each session.

In all, we trained over 500 personnel in active threat response.

We can confidently say and provide proof on demand that we had positive feedback and reviews from each training session.

Yes, we can train schools at scale.
Yes, we can empower our teachers.
Yes, we are ready.

Student dialogue is a good thing!

Give students seat at the table.

What sort of “self-care” are you practicing this summer?

Timeline photos 29/06/2023

This is an important one! So many systems are installed and never again tested. As you plan for the next school year, test those systems!

How often does your test its emergency communications systems?

Timeline photos 25/06/2023

Something to think about for the upcoming school year…

Simple measures like ensuring all staff members are equipped to secure locations can make all the difference.
