Mason Lane, Purdue University

Abstract

Active Shooter events have been on the rise throughout the United States. My research topic was chosen to better understand Just-In-Time Training to identify how it can assist traditional crisis response training in schools. The work has included investigating the background on what information there is on active shooters, length of training, and the methodology behind this research. There has been little previous research evaluating the retention of training. This work developed a survey to collect quantitative data, will allow for the data to be analyzed for retention. The results after three months show no retention loss was observed in this study, therefore, training once per semester is sufficient to establish and maintain active shooter responses. Just-In-Time Training (JITT) hopes to save schools money and time when training. This knowledge will give schools the approximately they should wait before training is required again.
