Re: Beyond the One Percent: How do we get more people to attend training beyond the state minimum?

As mentioned upthread, it is difficult to get people to focus on what they perceive to be unlikely threats. How many people have a formal fire reaction plan for their family, other than "get out of the house"? Of those, how many have ensured that all family members understand the plan? Of those, how many have actually practiced it? It's the same issue. We all understand that these threats are out there but there are a lot of things competing for our time (and money in the case of training).

The key is to help people understand that this is a real safety need, and then to make training available and heavily publicized.
