Introduction
The All Hazards Training Center has focused on general security-oriented training topics for more than a decade. This focus has coincided with the fact that private sector industry has been merging security issues/concerns with the worker safety and environmental management functions in many corporations. Security is now an important aspect that goes hand-in-hand with safety from the corporate perspective. The public sector tends to view this in much the same way. General Security-oriented training programs offered by The All Hazards Training Center include the following:

Firearms Training
Officers will respond in real situations according to how they train. Video scenario training is an immensely powerful tool in exposing officers to the realism of deadly encounters and teaching those needed skills necessary to survive and help others survive life threatening incidents.

The All Hazards Training Center utilizes the best, most technically advanced video training system on today's market. The system is produced by Firearms Training System (F.A.T.S.). The system features a broad assortment of DVDs with scenarios covering a vast range of subjects. The All Hazards Training Center has the knowledge and technology that allows us to film and produce scenarios on DVDs that are of the same quality as F.A.T.S. at a cost that is less than half of similar DVDs from FATS.

Vulnerability Assessments
Assessing your vulnerabilities is a critical step is overall security, whether you are a small private business entity, a large corporation, a school system, or even an entire city. A vulnerability assessment starts with a thorough review of the physical protection system(s) currently in place, and determines if this system is adequate to protect your assets - people, equipment, facilities, monuments, etc. A critical step that is many times left out of the equation is a cultural and climate assessment, that goes beyond the physical protection system review, and focuses on employees, neighbors, vendors, contractors and other "users" of your facilities. It also looks at the current culture to determine the existence of local organized crime, gangs, theft rings, and other local climate issues that may affect your overall security.
