If you or your office/department are interested in any of the below listed training/assessments we offer, please contact Officer Tyler – Crime Prevention and Education via email: tyler@gonzaga.edu
Behavior Based Reporting/Safe Bystander : Campus Security and Public Safety offers this training to help assess reportable behavior. There is no singular behavioral activity that can indicate someone is planning an illegal act, but recognizing unusual or abnormal behavioral cues with the eyes, mouth, hands, and feet can differentiate normal from abnormal behaviors. This training also removes, by using behaviors and not beings, any implicit bias we may have in reporting. Our Safe Bystander training acknowledges the history of controversial arrests/use of force and ensures Campus Security and Public Safety does not negate the lived experiences of those we serve. We apply simple steps to the bystander process to recognize the importance of our students, staff, and faculty and ensure interactions, under high stress, are safe and appropriate. We use the steps: See/observe, Determine what, if any, actions to take, and what those personal actions are.
Bomb Threat Training: Campus Security and Public Safety offers this training to help prepare our campus community in the event of a bomb threat. The focus of this 1-hr training session will be to offer easily remembered steps to take in the event of a bomb threat, whether in-person, via telephone, email or via mail. (Checklist provided at conclusion of training.)
