Aiming to Reduce Crime & Improve Safety

At Oasis, we offer state-of-the-art training for churches and para church organizations of all sizes and religions. We can customize a training with topics that your church is specifically looking to learn about, or we can use general education training for preliminary introduction to safety and security recommendations.

Our list of offered training can be built to communicate to a small group, such as elders and deacons, or we can create a training that speaks to larger groups such as staff members or volunteers.

Church Safety and Security Training

This training is what we would recommend for a church looking to begin a safety and security team within their facility. It includes information that is useful when setting up a security team, training volunteers in areas of nursery security, fire drills and prevention, and background checks. This information is also useful for safety and security teams who are looking to increase security or update their current strategy.

Protecting children should be a top priority for churches across the country, and Oasis has created a cutting-edge seminar to help. This seminar teaches and trains staff and volunteers on the best way to mitigate the risk of child sexual abuse within their nursery and young adult programs. It will also cover how to perform correct background checks, reporting requirements, and peer-on-peer abuse. We recommend this training for all churches.

Safety and Security Assessment

Many times a church won't know where to begin when it comes to setting up a safety team and securing its building. That's where we can help. Oasis will set up a visit to survey your church and recommend areas where increased security could benefit your facility. After the assessment, we recommend that the church have additional training offered to staff and volunteers.

Active Shooter Response Training

Oasic Safety

What You'll Learn

Mass public shootings have been happening more frequently over the last ten years. Being sure your building is safe, and your staff/volunteers are properly trained for an active shooter situation is extremely important and can save lives. Here are some topics that will be covered during this training:

  • Preparation
  • Proven Response Methods
  • What To Expect When Authorities Arrive
  • Recovery
  • Available Resources
  • Communication Concerns

Why is this Important?

Active shooters use a firearm(s) and have no set pattern or method for the selection of their victims. People rise to their level of training when confronted or responding to an incident, so it's very important to be trained for a scenario like this before it happens.

Safety and Security Assessment

Oasic Safety
