For example, the skill of observing the exit locations when coming to any place. Because when there is a fire, we only have 2 minutes to get out. If we are not calm and lack skills, we certainly cannot control our emotions to get out of those dangerous situations.The skills learned from the training session will be a useful tool for young people in the future, helping them to react appropriately to dangerous and unexpected situations to minimize unintended consequences.
