COURSE OVERVIEW
High-Risk Unified Commander (HRUC) 1 day course- is an advanced, fast-paced training program designed to prepare front-line supervisors, public safety leaders, and training officers to effectively manage and respond to high-risk, large-scale critical incidents. Developed in response to the evolving challenges faced by public safety agencies since the Columbine High School tragedy, this interactive course provides modern, practical strategies focused on rapidly “stopping the killing, dying, and crying” during major emergencies. Participants will gain comprehensive, real-world instruction on implementing contemporary response tactics, applying proven lessons learned from past incidents, and integrating effective command and control principles within unconventional and dynamic environments. The course emphasizes coordinated multi-agency response efforts and equips attendees to confidently operate in both high-tempo urban settings and resource-constrained rural jurisdictions. Through scenario-based discussions and practical application, students will enhance their ability to lead during critical incidents, improve operational decision-making, and strengthen unified command capabilities before, during, and after complex emergencies.
COURSE INSTRUCTOR
Jim Etzin recently retired as the Training Division Supervisor for the Farmington Hills Fire Department in Michigan and now serves as the Fire Department and EMS Coordinator for the Oakland County Tactical Consortium (OakTac), a mutual aid organization made up of 40 law enforcement agencies and multiple fire and EMS departments serving over 1.3 million residents.
A former U.S. Navy corpsman during Operation Desert Storm, Etzin later became a combat medicine instructor for the 1st Marine Division. He also served on the Marine Corps’ full-time SWAT team after attending both Marine Corps Military Police School and the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s SWAT School.
Following the 1997 North Hollywood shootout, years before Columbine, Etzin became the first person in the United States to develop the concept of deploying traditional fire service personnel into active violence incidents to rapidly save lives.
He is the founder of the International Tactical EMS Association (ITEMS) and serves on several national committees related to active violence response, tactical operations, and homeland security. Etzin is also an instructor, conference speaker, and subject matter expert who has helped develop nationally recognized active assailant response training programs.
In 2016, he organized the first North American Active Assailant Conference (NAAAC), which has grown into the largest conference in the world focused on emergency response to active violence, drawing nearly 2,000 law enforcement, fire, and EMS professionals annually.
