The practical exercises, because they showed how all elements of active shooter management flow together.
If an outside training provider has to fly in every time you need active shooter training, readiness stalls. ASIM Basic Train‑the‑Trainer is an 8‑hour in‑person course that builds your internal ASIM trainers so you can train on your schedule, to one standard ASIM playbook across law, fire, and EMS.
Most agencies have a patchwork of active shooter training that changes every time a new outside training provider shows up. ASIM Basic Train-the-Trainer builds a single internal ASIM trainer team so every shift, station, and mutual aid partner learns the same checklist‑based incident management model. Your leaders get a common playbook and clear, defensible training records.
Use one vetted ASIM Basic curriculum and checklist so every officer, firefighter, and medic learns the same incident management process.
Stop waiting on outside calendars. With in‑house trainers, you can run ASIM Basic for new hires, promotions, and refreshers whenever your schedule and staffing allow.
Centralized tests and training records show exactly who has completed ASIM Basic and when — for leadership, unions, grants, and after‑action reviews.
ASIM Basic Train-the-Trainer is a single 8‑hour in‑person course for up to 20 trainer candidates drawn from law enforcement, fire, and EMS. Over the day, your candidates experience ASIM Basic as students, then step into the trainer role to teach modules, run practical exercises, and use the system that tracks who is trained and to what standard.
Trainer candidates take part in the ASIM Basic course, walking through the checklist, case examples, and guided practicals from the student perspective.
Candidates practice teaching key blocks, running Counterstrike™ practicals, giving feedback, and using the LMS to enroll students, score tests, and document training.
ASIM Basic Train-the-Trainer gives your people hands‑on confidence to both run ASIM Basic and answer hard questions from the line. Candidates leave having run scenarios, briefed mixed‑discipline groups, and seen exactly how the checklist performs under pressure.
Law enforcement, fire, and EMS trainer candidates work together so your ASIM trainer team reflects the way you actually respond.
Candidates use the Counterstrike™ Professional Training System to walk through active shooter and hostile event scenarios from first call to last transport.
Each candidate gets reps presenting course content, facilitating practicals, and debriefing exercises — with coaching from NCIER instructors.
We use a no‑fault coaching style that supports both seasoned instructors and first‑time trainers, keeping the focus on learning the ASIM model and how to teach it.
You keep the full ASIM Basic curriculum and tools so you can deliver internal ASIM Basic training as often as needed — with no per‑delivery training fee from NCIER for non‑commercial use.
Bring your future ASIM trainers into one room and leave with a unified team.
Hosts provide the training space, basic AV, and up to 20 trainer candidates from law enforcement, fire, and EMS. NCIER provides the ASIM Basic curriculum, instructor team, and all course materials.
