Workplace Violence & Active Shooter Preparedness

TVPPA has partnered with InDev Tactical to deliver a workplace violence and active shooter preparedness program built on the proven ASSIST (Active Shooter & Security Incident Safety Training) framework. This training focuses on the unique issues and environment that utility professionals face. The approach is grounded in the principle that scaring people isn’t training them. The program uses a practical, proven method that avoids graphic content and fear based tactics, relying instead on measured, low stress scenarios that build confidence and real capability. It is a core component of the TVPPA Utility Security Professional Certificate Program, yet it remains a stand alone course that anyone interested in the topic can and should attend. Participants develop the essential skills to recognize early signs of aggression, assess unfolding situations, and respond effectively.
