Feedback from course participants

Katy MacGregor – SEC

Excellent course – best out there right now in terms of relevance.

Chief Inspector Pete Dearden
Event Commander, Metropolitan Police Service, London, UK

The Showstop procedure is proven as an emergency procedure when trained individuals who understand and recognise risk, act quickly and decisively. to reduce the risk of serious injury or fatality. I can’t underestimate the value of this training for those who work within sports, event & crowd safety management.

Scott Davidson – Code 4

This training reminds us that courage and clarity must coexist – because together they save lives.

Janet Sellery
ESA Canada

Event Safety Alliance Canada was proud to present the first Canadian Showstop Procedure course. The content was clear, very organized, and most importantly, actionable. Steve Allen brings his vast event experience to bring this content to each topic. The workshop topics allowed the participants to collaborate and apply the procedure to specific events. I would highly recommend this course to anyone who has responsibility for crowds, artists, workers and volunteers.

Stuart Doyle – Stadium Safety Officer

This is an essential course for anyone involved with planning, preparing and holding responsibility of any event. It helps the industry, particularly the safety of spectators attending any event automatically improve, share and evidence best practice, as well as ensuring a co-ordinated approach for safe events.

This course is valuable for all events managers associations and such. I am glad I was able to attend. Knowing when and how to stop a show is invaluable and life saving.

Finally, some traction in the event industry, with some seriously required and relevant training. We will now not only be confident but qualified to make the decisions required to make safer events.

Peter Fletcher, Stadium Safety Manager – Oasis Concert, 2005

There is no doubt that without the Showstop® Procedure in place, and properly documented, then all kinds of criticisms could be levelled should an incident occur.

Not only did Steve Allen provide such a document but it was well written, easily understandable and more importantly it worked.

Excellent course, with great in depth knowledge. Serious about safety? This course is a must.
