Hostage. Anything super heavy in LE tactics (understandably).

The practical exercises were fantastic. I learned so much about what law enforcement does during these incidents.

Which part(s) of the course was LEAST valuable to you? Please explain why.

The debriefs after the scenarios that weren't led by the instructors turned into compliment-fests. Actual issues that should have been addressed in the debriefs weren't always mentioned.

Please provide any other comments or suggestions you have for improving this course.

Emergency Management seemed like an afterthought. There is way more that EM can and should be doing in the course and the scenarios. For example, the reunification exercise was perfect for EM and LE wouldn't have been leading that in reality. EM can also take on intel gathering roles and serve as Area Commanders. Not just LE/FD.

What other training is most important to you now that you have completed this course?

I want to read more AARs from previous incidents.

Learning how LE and Fire Rescue would respond to an active shooter event. This is helpful as an emergency management specialist so I am aware of the potential resources that may be requested. This is important because certain resources will need to requested through different channels.

I believe everything to do with the course was valuable.

This is the second time I went through this course. I'm trying to branch it out into my responding agency and those surrounding us. It's the concept. Getting everyone on the same page. Responders know their discipline and sometimes don't want to budge for an integrated approach becuase they may not understand another discipline and it's limitations clearly.

Which part(s) of the course was LEAST valuable to you? Please explain why.

I like this course. The least valuable part is the agencies that won't participate. Most will be working from from the same slate and they'll be running rogue.

None.

I have been to the school course you offer as well. I'm hoping that maybe our schools (by observing this) will want to run that together.
