CLASS SETTING

We offer two levels of training for this series: ​

  • General Classroom Setting

  • Customized Security Assessment and Training for YOUR Specific Church

​

In our General Classroom Setting we host a shorter version of general church safety topics that are beneficial to all church safety teams. This class is shorter, but covers the basics of church safety at a selected location hosted by a local church. 

​

In our Customized Security Assessment Setting, we come directly to your local church, meet with you and your leadership to conduct a security assessment, identify vulnerabilities, review your Church Safety Protocols, and set up a custom training day with your church safety team and church leaders. This training is much more in depth and is unique to your facility.
