Presented by MUPD Staff 1:00P -­‐ 2:00P Room S204 In response to growing concern about Active Shooter/Active Threat incidents across the nation, the University Police Department will present this course to train members of the community how to respond when confronted with an active shooter. This program is a comprehensive approach, advocating integrated strategies that incorporate Environmental Design, Technology & Communication, Law Enforcement Response, and most importantly, ACTION by those in immediate danger because they are the real First Responders. Most of us have trained since childhood for emergency situations like fire and tornado. We have trained for these emergencies knowing the likelihood of such an occurrence is slim. Like fires, tornadoes, and earthquakes, active threat incidents, while uncommon, can have fatal consequences. Training for active threat incidents increases our chances of survival if the unexpected occurs. Relationship Basics for the Workplace
Presented by Henry Hauck 1:00P -­‐ 3:00P Room S207 Attend this session to improve your relationships at work! We will discuss and apply Wynne’s model, allow time for questions and discussion, and build a foundation for future offerings regarding interpersonal behaviors. Using Wynne's model on relationship development, this session will introduce some new ways to understand common experiences. The model has five steps; we will focus on the first four for business applications. The model is basic and so allows for good discussion and application. Participants will be able to apply their ideas to their own experiences. Chair Yoga
