Preparedness that reflects your workplace

Emergency response training is most useful when employees understand their options, practice communication, and can connect general safety principles to the spaces where they work. Arrow Security offers readiness instruction that can include active violence response, emergency bleeding control, evacuation and escape considerations, and scenario-based practice.

AVIRT is one specific active violence and emergency bleeding-control course within Arrow’s broader emergency response training options. Individuals can use the live catalog for current classes, while organizations can call to discuss a private or tailored session.

Instructor-led AVIRT active violence response training

AVIRT: Immediate response skills for violent emergencies

AVIRT—Active Violence Immediate Response Training—is designed to help people recognize warning signs, improve situational awareness, make rapid response decisions, and provide critical bleeding control when a violent emergency occurs.

The course combines discussion, practical skills, and scenario-based learning. Participants review how to escape or evade danger when possible, how to respond when escape is not possible, and how to control severe bleeding while professional responders are on the way.

No training can guarantee a particular outcome in an emergency. AVIRT provides a structured way to learn, practice, and discuss response options.
