Webinar 2: Beyond Compliance: Building a Safer School Under Alyssa’s Law

How can school districts move beyond Alyssa’s Law compliance and build a more complete emergency-response capability?

This webinar from MGT explores how school districts can strengthen school safety by connecting emergency alerts with accurate, location-based facility information. While panic alarms can quickly notify responders that help is needed, effective emergency response also depends on knowing exactly where an incident is occurring, how to access the campus, and what responders may encounter inside the building.

Hear a practical discussion about Alyssa’s Law, school safety, emergency preparedness, panic alarms, indoor GIS, critical incident mapping, and first responder coordination—and how accurate, maintainable digital maps can provide room-level information, building layouts, entrances, access routes, safety equipment, cameras, utilities, and other critical details.

The webinar also explores how districts can move from static floor plans and disconnected facility records to a shared operational picture that can support district staff, emergency dispatchers, law enforcement, fire and EMS, and other responding agencies.

Whether you’re responsible for school safety, facilities, emergency management, technology, GIS, or district operations, this webinar offers practical strategies for improving emergency readiness and creating a sustainable approach to maintaining critical facility information.
