PEC’s Course (Public Event Commanders - Crowd Science)
A great course, really useful and informative and well delivered. I’m promoting it to others, and have started to use the learning in the prep for the Godiva Festival. If its ok I will pass on your details to colleagues to understand more on how you used Keith Still’s [material]. Sarah Boycott. Assistant Chief Constable, Local Policing, West Midlands Police
Antwerp. Belgium (Campus Vesta)
Thanks for the amazing courses and great toolkit.
Many thanks for a great three days of crowd science.
Enjoyed the class thoroughly and can and will recommend it.
I thoroughly enjoyed the three day course in Antwerp. Apart from being very informative and helping me put a theoretical base to my years of experience, it was entertaining as well, which made it easy to stay focused on all the information you shared. Thank you for that.
We have received a great deal of information and learned a lot on these three days.

Thank you for such a wonderful and educational week. It was great to meet you at the Crowd Safety event and I have taken away so much from these three days.
Holland, Apeldoorn
Excellent three days, we all learned so much and applied it to our own sites on the third day.
I would like to thank you for three very interesting and energetic days during the short course in Apeldoorn. The short course really enhanced my knowledge on the theory and concepts you presented.

Canadian/USA quotes
My team and I have heard wonderful things about your Crowd Safety and Risk Analysis course, and while some of us did attend your recent seminar in Ottawa, the whole team would very much love an opportunity to meet with you and organize a training course on Crowd Science. We believe it can be very good knowledge to have in our line of work as we deal with Major events in Parliamentary Precinct.
KEITH – Thank you so very much for the best 3 days of learning that I have spent in sometime! I also enjoyed the collaboration with my fellow classmates. We need to expand and carry this forward throughout our sports/entertainment profession.
Shannan Tiffin, Captain of Support Services/Emergency Management at Duke University Police Department, found the workshop to be very beneficial. “There is not a lot out there about crowd behavior and psychology,” said Tiffin. “The workshop provided us with a simplified approach to understanding the behaviors of how people act, and ingress and egress from a venue or stadium.”
Rebecca Wilusz, Associate Director of Game Operations & Champion at Duke University Athletics, agrees with Tiffin. “Keith has done a great job of making the information accessible – I have left the workshop with both simple and effective tools to be able to build better plans and train our athletics staff more efficiently.
Australian tour (Perth, Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane)
The knowledge gained during this course has been invaluable.
Many thanks for a very informative few days last week on the course. This course raised the bar for me in terms of referencing events and utilising the tools and knowledge to better assist event organisers. Most enjoyable and useful.
Thanks for all the documentation and the course itself! One of the best training courses I’ve attended in a long time.

"On a personal basis it allowed me to confidently state my case with a client why such safety measures where required. It was a completely new event site and when the ‘Flamming Lips’ came on stage we had a robust crowd management plan in place with crowd spotters deployed. I needed every bit of your course and not sure the outcome if I hadn’t attended. Probably, like everyone else, we would have crossed our fingers!" Jonathan Cunningham MBE. Managing Director.

Institute of Licensing (two day seminar/workshop)
"Prior to the course I was unsure as to how relevant and useful it would be for my role. It was very relevant and indeed eye opening. I was given an insight into issues that I had not previously even considered and now was able to see the importance as well as given a grasp of what I needed to do in future. The relevance of the content included crowd management, health and safety, licensing and public order, all of which are vital in my role as an operational police officer. I would thoroughly recommend it to others. It also helped that the delivery was interesting and thought provoking." IoL Delegate
"I would recommend this course to all those in the Police service who have a responsibility for event planing or involvment on ESAGs." IoL Delegate

Following our recent courses in Australia (Aug and Oct 2014)
“The delegates confidence in dealing with Stakeholders and Authorities has shown no boundaries has since they can now show a safety concept that is practical and accountable……..the issues we now have is curbing their enthusiasm with the amount of information!! You can not ignore a Diagram, Graph or Map as it is based around one of major senses….Sight! As a company…the staff can see what I see with regards to Crowd Management. Jim Fidler – Fda,JP. Director
“A fantastic and beneficial course, it was the only course I had ever done where I was upset when it finished, the course provides a unique and mathematical approach to crowd engineering, the consensus of all who attended was that it provided us with the tools and confidence to do our job” Operations Manager, Sydney Opera House (2014)
“This course opens your eyes to the potential issues with Mass Gatherings. As well as providing an individual with the tools and knowledge to assess the event plans and proposed mitigation for major events. With the introduction of the Crowd Science Qualification it would be in your best interest to attend. The delivery and information provided is beyond reproach and glad to see the course in Australia!

SXSW Music is one of the largest music festivals in the United States, with more than 2,000 performers playing in more than 90 venues. SXSW is the highest revenue-producing event for the Austin (Texas, USA) economy, with an estimated economic impact of $167 million in 2011.
"Prof. Still's crowd safety workshop gave us valuable, specific, practical information that we could use in many different ways to improve our event. It was presented in a fantastic way using talks, videos, exercises, and discussions that really brought the group together. We had 30 people, half from our organization and half were various City first responders (Fire, Police, EMS). One of the best things that happened was getting to go through two three-day workshops with all of these people that you talk with for maybe 30 minutes at most.
"The team-building and connections that Prof. Still's crowd safety workshop offered were worth it on their own. But in addition a whole team of people got the knowledge and the lens through which to view crowd management and engagement in the most beneficial and practical way possible. It was fantastic." Brad Spies (SXSW), Austin, Texas (2012)
“The City of Austin is host to several mass gatherings that include music festivals, collegiate sporting events, and holiday celebrations. Dr. Still’s crowd safety workshops provided tools and insights that will improve my ability to predict potential issues, create plans to address the predicted issues and manage the crowds that these events bring; ultimately creating safer events for our citizens. If you are responsible for the management of large gatherings, I would recommend this workshop for you and your team." Pete DiDonato, Division Chief, Austin - Travis County Emergency Medical Services, Austin Texas USA (July 2011)

"I've been organising events for over 30 years and was fascinated in the more scientific approach given. A charismatic presenter who makes it seem like common sense."
"Fascinating and wanted to know more. It crystalised a topic which I thought was instinctive into a more concrete set of principles."
"Invaluable checklist for myself as an event organiser and as a member of a SAG to check other organisers are following correct procedures."
"Fascinating information. I would definitely attend a course that was even more in depth and over a longer period or in several sessions."
"Charismatic speaker who I felt was at the cutting edge of the science. In fact he sets the rules on this topic. If only he was writing an additional section to the event organisers 'bible' - The Purple Guide."
"I'll be reading more on the topics covered now that I've had such great information."
"Prof. Still needs to work alongside the HSE to improve the Purple Guide and also there should be some form of qualifiaction that should be held in order for any organiser to hold a public event."
