ALICE Scenario Assessment 2

Question 1

You are in a large office building and hear what sounds like gunshots two floors below. The building has multiple stairwells. What is your FIRST priority in assessing this scenario?

Accepted Answer

Determine your exact location relative to the threat and identify available exits

Answer

Before acting, ALICE training requires you to quickly assess your position relative to the threat and identify potential escape routes.

Question 2

A lockdown announcement is made at a school. A teacher notices a student is in the hallway near a classroom that is not their own. What should the teacher do?

Accepted Answer

Pull the student into the nearest classroom and secure the door

Answer

During an active threat, pulling any exposed person to safety and securing the space is the correct ALICE-aligned response.

Question 3

An ALICE trainer is running a workplace drill. Participants are told a threat is on the ground floor of a 3-story building. Which scenario response reflects proper ALICE Evacuate principles?

Accepted Answer

Occupants on upper floors evacuate via stairwells moving away from the threat floor

Answer

ALICE Evacuate directs people to move away from the threat using the safest available route, typically stairwells that lead away from the danger.

Question 4

During a scenario assessment exercise, a participant says, 'I would wait to see if the noise is really a threat before doing anything.' How does ALICE training address this mindset?

Accepted Answer

It is dangerous — ALICE emphasizes proactive action based on available information, not certainty

Answer

ALICE training stresses that waiting for absolute confirmation wastes critical escape time; act on available information.

Question 5

A hospital administrator is assessing a scenario in which an armed person enters through the main entrance. Staff are spread across multiple departments. Which ALICE principle should guide the response plan?

Accepted Answer

Response decisions should be individualized based on each person's proximity and options available

Answer

ALICE empowers individuals to make the best decision based on their specific location, options, and circumstances rather than one mandated response.
