1500   Lessons From Ground Zero: Evacuation   (DVD)

This video includes presentations in both English and Spanish.

This program is the second part in our "Lessons From Ground Zero" training documentary. Listen to the gripping first-hand accounts of those who experienced the World Trade Center evacuations on February 26, 1993 and September 11, 2001. Learn how critical security changes after the 1993 bombing expedited the September 11 evacuation, which allowed more than 18,000 people to evacuate in less than two hours -- four hours faster than in 1993. The knowledge can spell the difference for you, your employees and facility.

The key training points covered in this video include:

• Evacuation drills and fire drills
• Proper use of fire extinguishers
• The necessity of working radios, flashlights, first aid kits and accurate building maps

Support materials to enhance learning include a printable Leader's Guide and a customizable PowerPoint presentation for classroom use.
