Skin in the Game

Delivered by people who’ve been there, an “I Love U Guys” Foundation training is a special blend of emotional heart and tactical takeaways. Our instructors’ stories from inside and behind school crises illustrate the importance of planning and preparing, while our easy-to-learn protocols and methods show you how.

Training, In Person And Virtual

We work with schools, districts, departments, agencies and organizations of all sizes. And we can work with resource-constrained organizations to help find underwriters.

In response to the COVID-19 crisis, we developed livestream delivery for most of our training options. Turns out that livestream deliveries are a popular option for breakouts, professional development, and half-day offerings. Pro studios (soon, in every time zone) give you ultimate scheduling flexibility.

This was the most focused, thoughtful, engaging, and ready to implement training that I have attended.
Stephen Owen Professor of Criminal Justice, Radford University

In-Person Delivery... Hold on for a unique, maybe life-changing, learning experience. Nothing beats the impact of being in the room together.

We hear it all of the time. Our training is unique. Presentation visuals, media, and a cadence grounded in real brain science and multimedia learning theory. Not death by PowerPoint. Well-versed instructors who are "practitioners" in the field. A combination of "just the facts", Bloom's Taxonomy, and storytelling, leveraging one of the most powerful learning tools humans have ever developed.

Expect real-world conversations, shared insights, and maybe even a few belly laughs.

Our in-person trainings foster a unique outcome... Teams. Multi-disciplinary, cross-jurisdictional, institutionally sustainable teams. Using proven techniques (not awkward icebreakers), we create meaningful connections between people who may have started the day as strangers.

Virtual Delivery... Studio or Zoomio

March of 2020 gave us an opportunity to reimagine our training delivery models. By April of that year, we stood up our first Livestream Studio. Today our broadcast studios feature WireCast Production Software, Blackmagic Design 4K Studio Cameras, Panasonic Lenses, 56K balanced lighting rigs, and ATEM Switchers. And, we offer two livestream delivery options with a dedicated Producer handling all the back-end operations as well as interacting with your attendees, facilitating Q&A, and providing relevant resources as they arise.

Livestream Studio

"It felt like you were in the room." That's exactly what our Livestream Studio delivers. With an instructor presenting in front of a greenscreen that seamlessly integrates the slide deck, this immersive experience makes you feel like you're right there. The presenter moves around the studio, "working the room" to create dynamic and engaging training—straight from your computer.

Livestream Zoomio

Separate from our Studio offering, Livestream Zoomio is the closest thing we offer to a "traditional" Zoom presentation—only better. Our instructor will present directly from their computer, sharing the slide deck on-screen. Of course, we still incorporate some production quality commitments that enhance the learning experience beyond the typical Zoom call.

Any Time Zone. 3 Studios.

Behind the Scenes with Livestream Studio Deliveries

The “I Love U Guys” Foundation has a reputation for high-content, high-value, high-engagement training. Here’s a behind-the-scenes glance at how we meet that expectation with virtual delivery.

March of 2020 gave us an opportunity to reimagine our training delivery models. By April of that year, we stood up our first Livestream Studio. Today our broadcast studios feature WireCast Production Software, Blackmagic Design 4K Studio Cameras, Panasonic Lenses, 56K balanced lighting rigs, and ATEM Switchers. And, we offer two livestream delivery options with a dedicated Producer handling all the back-end operations as well as interacting with your attendees, facilitating Q&A, and providing relevant resources as they arise.

The Studios

Studios in multiple time zones. Ensuring we have an instructor on hand and "in the zone". It gives you booking flexibility to meet your calendar opportunities.

The Gear

More than talking over a PowerPoint, the Foundation’s virtual delivery uses high definition cameras, microphones and software to livestream our training events to a Zoom meeting for your attendees.

The Production

Our online training leverages our deep understanding of the “brain-science” behind multimedia learning. 45 - 55 minute sessions with a 15 minute break is our standard.

The “Bear”

We’ve all probably had a “Zoomie” moment where all of the dogs in all of the rooms do a check in. Meet Baron. You might see him drop into a session from the Placitas Studio.

Keynotes and Debriefs

The "I Love U Guys" Foundation representatives have delivered Keynote presentations internationally. It is not uncommon for an audience to come to their feet at the conclusion of any one of these presentations.

Please contact us for rates and availability.

The Black Swan

With nearly 50,000 organizations using Foundation programs, John-Michael Keyes tells the story of how a simple text message, "I love you guys" has transformed crisis response in schools and communities. From the events at Platte Canyon to the core mission, this day is punctuated by Mr. Keyes' workshop delivery.

Note: The Foundation team is jealously guarding Mr. Keyes' calendar. Consequently, there is limited availability to this offering.

Note from JMK: Team: You know I can see this. Do not put me out to pasture yet. Still spritely.

Leadership: Columbine Lessons: The 1999 tragedy at Columbine High School

The tragedy at Columbine redefined the nation. Dr. Frank DeAngelis tells his story from the events to the aftermath.

Arapahoe High Debrief – Law Enforcement

As much as we prepare and train for emergencies, there are always things we don’t expect. In this session, James Englert provides first-hand details of the shooting at Arapahoe High School from the perspective of a school resource officer (SRO) on scene.

Platte Canyon Debrief – Civilian

The tragic events on September 27th 2006 at Platte Canyon High School brought two unlikely people together: A.J. DeAndrea who devised and executed the tactical plan for the hostage rescue, and John-Michael Keyes who lost his daughter, Emily. The riveting point-counterpoint of their actions on that day are only part of the story.

Platte Canyon Debrief – Law Enforcement

This presentation gives a deep dive of the events and lessons learned at Platte Canyon High School from the law enforcement perspective. A.J. DeAndrea devised and executed the tactical plan for the hostage rescue, and John-Michael Keyes lost his daugher, Emily. A SWAT Team lead and a victim's father share their experiences.

Platte Canyon Debrief – Negotiator

This presentation explores the interactions during the Platte Canyon High School events between a negotiator, Stacy Avila, and a 16 year old girl being held hostage. It's a powerful affirmation of a negotiator and a victim's father (John-Michael Keyes) sharing their experiences on that day and beyond.

Create and deliver better presentations despite PowerPoint

The true enemy of a great presentation is the brain of everyone in your audience. How it's wired. How it works. How it explodes. (Figuratively, of course. None of us want actual exploding brains.)
