Virtual Event, 000-Virtual Event

 Add to my calendar

We’ve all heard the phrase “Be aware of your surroundings.” Typically, this saying is used in relation to personal safety. For example, if you’re walking alone at night, you should be cognizant of what’s going on around you and be prepared to react if you perceive a threat. If you’re driving a car, you should be aware of other drivers and try to anticipate their actions, such as someone slamming on their brakes or swerving into your lane. These are just a couple examples of Situational Awareness.

So what is Situational Awareness?

Conscious knowledge of the immediate environment, people occupying it, and the events that are occurring in it. Situation awareness involves perception of the elements in the environment, comprehension of what they mean and how they relate to one another, and projection of their future states. In ergonomics, for example, it refers to the operator’s awareness of the current status and the anticipated future status of a system.

The Staff Learning Series has partnered with Public Safety to bring you a virtual learning opportunity on Situation Awareness at 12pm on October 4, 2022. Lt. Colbey Russell will present some ways in which you can be more aware of your surroundings and when you should reach out to Public Safety. Lt. Russell will also provide some de-escalating tips in this session to help you through uncomfortable situations. Tune in to learn more about other educational opportunities Public Safety is providing!

This session will be virtual and recorded.
