The Threat Evaluation and Reporting Course (TERC) is a three-day course designed for multi-disciplinary federal, state, local, tribal, and territorial (F/SLTT) partners involved in homeland security, law enforcement, emergency management, education, healthcare, legal, and public safety sectors. TERC trains participants to apply Behavioral Threat Assessment and Management (BTAM) best practices to help prevent acts of mass violence—including terrorism, school shootings, and public space attacks—by identifying and addressing concerning threats or behaviors. Using a four-step BTAM model (Identify, Inquire, Assess, Manage), the course prepares teams to develop interventions that reduce the risk of violence while respecting individuals’ constitutional rights, privacy, and civil liberties. Community involvement and early intervention are emphasized throughout.
