DATABASES "5 Phases of the "Active Shooter"" Shooting incidents have become so common that law enforcement has coined the term "Active Shooter" while coming to the realization that waiting for a SWAT team to respond to such a scene would cost lives. The Active Shooter requires an immediate, effective and efficient act of courage. This is one time when a police officer who is on-duty or off needs to ride to the sound of gunfire and end the threat with a well placed bullet as soon as possible. There are five phases of the Active Shooter phenomenon. More information on these phases can be located in the Core Database under document #591373. "Law Enforcement Officers Safety Act" This policy is from the Howard County, Maryland, Department of Police Special Orders Manual. It is the policy of the Howard County Department of Police to comply with the Law Enforcement Officers Safety Act (LEOSA). This is to include a weapons qualification process for retired police officers from the Department and guidelines for HCPD officers contacting armed individuals carrying weapons under LEOSA. This policy is located in the Policies Database under document #591469. NETWORKING Get New Ideas For Your Website Tired of the look of your agency's website?

CURRENT AFFAIRS Free - Incident Command Training Software Incident Commander is a PC-based software simulation that models real-world situations within a community, allowing for training at the management level for a critical incident. It is based upon the command structure mandated by FEMA in its rules for National Incident Management System compliance, notably the Incident Command System. The simulation offers a realistic representation of crisis management with realistic scenarios; realistic time delays and realistic resource limitations, all set in the arena of the players' county or local region.
