Identifying Threats Before They Manifest.

Physical security stops threats at the door. Behavioral intelligence stops them before they ever arrive. Level 2 assesses the human climate, culture, and systems that determine whether warning signs are recognized — and acted on — in time.

Most school violence is not random. Warning signs exist in nearly every documented incident. Level 2 evaluates whether your school has the policies, training, and reporting systems to recognize and respond to those signs before they escalate.


What Level 2 Evaluates.

The Level 2 questionnaire covers six behavioral intelligence zones — each measuring a distinct dimension of your school's human safety climate.
