This one-hour continuing education course provides a practical overview of Active Assailant exposures and the limitations of traditional insurance coverage. Participants will learn how these risks are defined, where standard policies may fall short, and how specialty solutions—such as Active Shooter and Deadly Weapons Protection (DWP) coverage—have developed in response.

The course also explores the role of DWP coverage in the excess and surplus lines market, addresses common myths and marketplace challenges, and concludes with real claims examples to help agents better communicate coverage options and protect their clients.
