The only training that actually prevents violence before it occurs.
United Safety Training Systems is the unquestioned leader in workplace and school violence prevention.
Prevention vs. Reaction
Is your active shooter training — or any workplace violence program — prevention driven, or reaction driven? Let’s find out.
Does your training explain what to do if there is an active shooter in the building? If so, your training teaches you how to react. In that type of training, you are accepting that there will be loss of life and violence in your workplace.
With our training, we teach you how to identify a person on the pathway to violence. We teach you how to identify, document, and verify that a person is escalating toward violence — and we give you the tools to engage that person and direct them onto a path that does not include violence, getting them help early, while they can still be redirected.
Conflict Resolution Training
Conflict resolution is reaction-based too. You cannot resolve a conflict that hasn’t occurred yet — conflict resolution only begins after the conflict already exists. That is reaction, not prevention.

Why We Use Aggression to Identify the Next Perpetrator of Violence in the Workplace or School
How We Identify Aggression
Our Critical Aggression Prevention System is simple, really.
Think of a small child and a lightning bug. If the child has never seen one, he can’t point one out. But show him what a lightning bug looks like — its glow, its long body — and he will spot one every time, even in the dark.
We teach your staff the same way.
There are two types of aggression. Aggression moves through nine stages, from calm to crisis. We teach your team what each stage looks like, in plain, clear signs anyone can learn to see. No guessing, and no judging people for who they are — just what they do.
Then our technology does the hard part. When your staff reports what they see, the system shows which stage the person is in, and how big the risk is. The app then tells the right member of your team exactly what to do next, step by step.
Sometimes that means stepping in right away to help. Sometimes it means keeping watch, in case things get worse.
It is an advanced system, built on solid science. But for the people who use it, it is simple to learn and simple to use.
