• Act in various roles — from innocent bystanders, victims, hostage takers, violent protestor to active shooter — to help responders practice life-saving decision-making.
• Will be required to run, hide under and behind objects, yell, scream, cry, discharge training weapons, remain silent and more.
• Follow established safety protocols and stay true to the script provided by the instructional team.
• Engage in intense, realistic scenarios that may involve simulated gunfire, explosions, or traumatic injuries.
• Adapt to various environments and weather conditions, with occasional nights and weekends required.
