EEV-100: Emergency Evacuation Course for Security Professionals

EEV-100 is the Eight Point Solutions Emergency Evacuation Course for Security Professionals, a 4-hour online course for security officers, event and venue staff, front desk and lobby personnel, floor wardens, supervisors, and anyone the emergency action plan counts on to move people when the alarm sounds. Delivered self-paced on the EPS Portal from Lanham, Maryland, the course trains the officer to run an evacuation as a procedure and not a reaction: treat the alarm as an order, report the location and the nature in the format so the incident commander picks the right protective action, make an announcement with four parts and never the words please remain calm, go to the assigned point and send people to the right exit with an arm and a landmark, get the people who cannot use the stairs to the refuge, the chair, or the relocation the plan names, sweep every room only where it is safe, count employees by roster and the public by exception, run shelter-in-place and lockdown when the answer is not the door, hold until the all-clear, control re-entry, and write the report. Content aligns with OSHA emergency action plan and exit route rules in 29 CFR 1910.36 through 1910.38, NFPA 101 means of egress, and the fire marshal's approved plan for assembly occupancies. Tuition is $25.00. The official EEV-100 Course Syllabus, Version 1.0 is included in Module 1. Five modules cover the evacuation and the officer, the alarm, the decision, and the announcement, running the exits, the sweep, the count, and the people the count has to find, and shelter, lockdown, re-entry, and the record. Completion requires all five modules, every module quiz passed at 80 percent or higher, the 50-item final examination passed at 90 percent or higher, and the course sign-off. The EPS Emergency Evacuation Certification is serial-numbered, recorded in the EPS registry, verifiable through the EPS Portal, and valid for two years. The credential documents completion of EPS training. It is not a state security license, it is not a firefighting or fire marshal's certificate, it does not replace the emergency action plan of the building, and it does not authorize any use of force. EEV-100 is governed by EPS-DIR-001 and the EEV-100 Course Syllabus. Built to be taken alongside CMG-100, the EPS Crowd Management Course. Samuel Romanzo, Training Director.

Modules & lessons.

01
Module 1: The Evacuation and the Officer
3 lessons · 0.5 hours, self-paced. Closes with a quiz that passes at 80 percent. Covers the EPS Portal from login through the final examination, the course map, and the grading rules that govern certification. Covers the emergency action plan OSHA requires and what it has to contain, the three parts of a way out under NFPA 101, the exit route rules that double as the officer's inspection list, the officer's five jobs, initiate, direct, sweep, account, and report, and the chain before and after the fire department arrives. Establishes the rule that runs the whole course: an evacuation is a procedure, not a reaction.
02
Module 2: The Alarm, the Decision, and the Announcement
1 lesson · 1.0 hours, self-paced. Closes with a quiz that passes at 80 percent. Covers the parts of a fire alarm system, why an alarm is an order the building empties on, who decides which protective action fits which emergency, the five kinds of protective action, full, partial, relocation, shelter-in-place, and lockdown, the four-part announcement and the words that never go in it, why people go back the way they came in, the announcement in a crowd, and the false alarm and the drill run exactly the same way.
03
Module 3: Running the Exits
1 lesson · 0.5 hours, self-paced. Closes with a quiz that passes at 80 percent. Covers the officer's point, position and the pointing arm, exit access, exit doors and stairs, why elevators are not exits, the three ways the plan handles the people who cannot use the stairs and the report that brings the fire department to them, the exit discharge where evacuations stall, the no re-entry rule, and moving a crowd out with every CMG-100 rule and the clock running faster. States the limit plainly: nobody is pushed, pulled, or held.
04
Module 4: The Sweep, the Count, and the People the Count Has to Find
1 lesson · 0.5 hours, self-paced. Closes with a quiz that passes at 80 percent. Covers the sweep room by room with marking, the conditions that end a sweep at a door, the assembly point and its distances, counting employees by roster and the public by exception, the sentence that stops a search, the people a count misses unless the officer looks for them by name, medical at the assembly point, and the report to the incident commander in a fixed shape.
05
Module 5: Shelter, Lockdown, Re-entry, and the Record
1 lesson · 0.5 hours, self-paced. Closes with a quiz that passes at 80 percent. Covers shelter-in-place for weather and for hazards outside, the lightning plan, lockdown and the directed evacuation for a violent threat with no engagement by the officer, who declares the all-clear, controlled re-entry, the same-day report with the times the course taught the officer to know, the debrief, and the drill report as the record that the plan was trained.
