The national standard for Active Shooter Incident Management

A process to stop a shooter and rescue injured faster, saving lives.

What do you do?

In 2022, the National Tactical Officers Association (NTOA) endorsed the C3 Pathways Active Shooter Incident Management Checklist as a national standard. Having a national standard means law enforcement, fire, and emergency medical services responders across the country have an accepted way of managing active shooter events.

You control the clock, not the criminal. The time it takes to address the threat, provide medical care and transport the injured matters.

Time kills. What you do next and how fast you do it saves lives!

Integration Problem

Responders aren’t sure how to work together across jurisdictions and disciplines, meaning police with other police and fire/EMS with police.

Clock Problem

The order in which you do things has a huge impact on how long it takes to neutralize the threat and rescue the injured. The clock never stops ticking.

National Standard

Endorsed by the NTOA as the national standard, the NIMS compliant Active Shooter Incident Management Checklist addresses integration and the clock.

Most active shooter training is tactics to stop the shooter and never addresses the rest of the incident. This historical training gap fails the victims who can bleed to death as responders struggle to manage the scene, the injured, and the clock. C3 Pathways developed the Active Shooter Incident Management Checklist — a response process that integrates law enforcement, fire, and EMS so the shooter is stopped quickly, victims are rescued quickly, and the scene is secured quickly, which results in saving more lives.

The C3 Edge

We believe that you deserve the best industry training possible. We understand the uncertainty you feel, which is why we created the national standard in Active Shooter Incident Management and have been training law enforcement, fire, and EMS for nearly 20 years.
