Active Violence Immediate Response Training

Because every second matters. And so does every person.

When violence erupts without warning, help can feel a lifetime away. In those first critical minutes, ordinary people become the only line between life and death. HSI’s Active Violence Immediate Response Training (AVIR) empowers your team with the confidence, calm, and lifesaving skills to protect themselves and others when the unthinkable happens.

This course is not about creating fear — it’s about building strength. Your staff will learn how to recognize danger quickly, take decisive action, and care for the injured until professional responders arrive. They’ll practice simple, effective techniques for stopping life-threatening bleeding, choosing safer escape paths, and improving survival for themselves and their coworkers.

Because emergencies don’t wait.
Because courage grows when we feel prepared.
Because every life in your workplace is someone’s family, someone’s friend, someone who deserves to go home at the end of the day.

Give your people the tools to act… not freeze.
Give them the knowledge that saves lives.

When violence threatens, heroes aren’t born — they’re trained.
