Logan Lane, Director of Continuing Education at the Florida Public Safety Institute, was recently featured in a Channel 7 news article titled “New Active Shooter Training Aims to Save Lives Faster.” In the article, Logan discusses the Active Shooter training, which is a course offered by the Florida Mine Safety Program.
Here’s a snippet from the article:

The Gordon Center at the University of Miami hosted an Active Shooter Hostile Training at Gulf Coast State College’s Emergency Operations Center, bringing together Florida law enforcement, fire rescue teams, and EMS personnel. The training departs from traditional methods by allowing fire rescue teams to enter ‘hot zones’ alongside law enforcement to administer medical aid immediately.
NewsChannel 7 reporter Isabella Benjumea, a survivor of the 2018 Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting, emphasized that earlier adoption of such training could have saved lives.
‘Every time we have an incident, we improve the process,’ said Logan Lane, [Director of Continuing Education at the Florida Public Safety Institute]. ‘After Parkland, we trained officers for single-officer responses.
