About the Event

Schools present unique security challenges. Educational institutions must not only protect students, teachers and staff but do so in a way that does not disrupt the learning environment or disturb children. This symposium will examine how schools are deploying solutions and developing policies from the campus perimeter to the classroom that prevent unauthorized access and keep people safe, all while enabling teaching, coaching and a positive atmosphere that supports personal growth.
