GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ)- It’s a chance to learn how to respond in a dangerous situiation.
With public threats becoming more common, knowing how to respond is becoming a must.
“It’s the fight of your life, I mean it is 110 percent.”
Jason Weber, NWTC Public Safety Training Coordinator is hosting an hour long education session that will go over what options people have when facing a dangerous situation.
Weber says it starts with being in the correct mindset.
“Often that first reaction is denial” Weber said.
After realizing you are in threatening situation, Weber say it is immediately decision time.
“There are really three options, run, hide or flight” Weber said. “Those three options really depends on the situation that you are in.”
Weber says knowing your surroundings is one way to help you plan your response.
“Kind of look around you so you know what your options are. There is a limited time for them to cause as much damage as they possibly can.”
He says the idea of the coure is all about getting people in the right frame of mind to handle a threatening situation.
“We are just planting the seed for folks in the event something does happen, at least they have kind of starting thinking this through.”
The session will run Tuesday night from 6:30 to 7:30 at the NWTC Training Center on West Mason Street.
