The Avoid | Deny | Defend™ program provides guidance through concepts that align with many current corporate and private sector procedures such as avoiding dangerous situations. Corporate leaders have chosen Avoid | Deny | Defend™ because they don't believe that some of the other training videos are the most appropriate to show employees due to graphic messaging content and recommendation to “fight.” Avoid | Deny | Defend™ addresses a variety of locations including small offices, large rooms, and open retail store environment.

The campaign is designed to provide all civilians with knowledge that will empower and instill confidence to survive an active shooter attack whether at work, church, the movie theater or anywhere else they may be. It is not intended to frighten, but to empower and strengthen the ability to survive.

Avoid | Deny | Defend™ is designed as an awareness tool that will empower and instill confidence to civilians of all ages and abilities, helping them understand that “What You Do Matters™” in an active shooter event.

ALERRT receives a report from TEEX with student completion and contact information on a bi-weekly basis. It then takes a minimum of a week for ALERRT to process that list.

Once ALERRT has received and processed your information, an account will be setup for you on the ALERRT Instructor Portal (if you do not already have one). You will receive an email notification on how to access the instructor materials and ALERRT certificate once your account is ready.

If it has been over this time since you completed the course, or you are needing the materials expedited for an upcoming training, please email your TEEX completion certificate to help@alerrt.org
