Active Shooter Lessons - Out to Lunch - It's Baton Rouge

There s an old proverb that says, "If you give a man a fish, you
feed him for a day but if you teach him to fish you feed him for a
lifetime." Learning something new changes one s perception of the
world and opens so many doors. Being on the teaching end presents
opportunities, too. On this edition of Out to Lunch, Stephanie
introduces two entrepreneurs who are creating opportunities through
education companies that are teaching clients life changing and
life saving skills. Joey Comeaux is founder and CEO of Cover Six
Training Academy. It s based in Church Point and trainis Law
Enforcement, Military and First Responders as well as owners of
business establishments how to deal with an "active shooter,"
hostage, or terrorist situation. At 75,000 square feet, Joey s
training facility a converted Fruit of the Loom factory uses
moveable walls to recreate building layouts such as hospitals,
schools, houses, banks and hotels. Since its opening, thousands of
law enforcement and first responders have traveled to south
Louisiana for their training at Cover Six s facility. And Joey and
his team visit casinos and other businesses to train staff to deal
with an occurence of violence on premises. Less dramatic but no
less important or impressive, Peter Ranzino s Learning Sciences is
a Baton Rouge based learning and development company that
specializes in the deployment of web based learning environments
for its clients and their employees. Those clients include some
well known national companies, such as NBC Sports, Philips 66,
Glaxosmithkline, LSU, and the Louisiana State Police. Photos at
