The role playing scenarios.
Tabletop exercises and written plans are essential starting points, but they can’t show how your system performs when the clock is ticking. ASIM Advanced is a 3‑day, 24‑hour, high‑fidelity simulation course for up to 60 responders that runs 10 complete active shooter and complex coordinated attack incidents from first call to last transport. Your full team sees how the ASIM Checklist performs under pressure across law, fire, EMS, dispatch, PIO, emergency management, and air assets.
Most agencies have plans, policies, and tabletop exercises, but very few have seen their full team manage multiple complex attacks at operational tempo. ASIM Advanced brings law enforcement, fire, EMS, dispatch, PIO, emergency management into the same room and the same simulated incidents. You get real repetitions, real decisions, and real data on how your system performs when seconds matter.
Move beyond discussion‑based exercises into 3D simulation where radio traffic, injects, and timelines force real‑time command and control decisions.
Run 10 complete incidents using the ASIM Checklist so every function practices the same priorities, language, and expectations across agencies.
Run your full team through realistic, high-pressure incidents so leaders leave with a clearer understanding of how the system performs, where coordination breaks down, and what needs follow-up.
ASIM Advanced is a 24‑hour, 3‑day in‑person course for up to 60 participants across law enforcement, fire/EMS, dispatch, PIO, and emergency management. Using the NIMSPro™ 3D Simulation System, your team runs 10 complete incidents that build from basic active shooter events to complex coordinated attacks with IEDs and barricaded or hostage‑taking attackers. Participants rotate through ASIM Checklist positions, gaining role‑specific experience and system‑wide understanding.
Orientation to the ASIM Checklist, incident profiles, and simulation environment, followed by initial incidents that establish common roles, communications, and priorities.
Run multiple moderate‑complexity incidents that stress‑test unified command, resource deployment, medical operations, communications, and multi‑agency coordination.
Tackle complex coordinated attacks and special‑problem incidents, then complete structured after‑action reviews to capture gaps, strengths, and next steps for your region.
ASIM Advanced puts your people inside realistic, high‑tempo incidents without the risks and costs of full‑scale field exercises. Participants leave with muscle memory for their roles, a shared mental model across disciplines, and a clear picture of how the system performs when everything is on the line.
Responders work in a NIMSPro™ simulation lab that mirrors real‑world radio traffic, timelines, and injects from first 911 call to last patient transport.
Law enforcement, fire, EMS, dispatch, PIO, and emergency management representatives work side by side, building trust and shared expectations across agencies.
Participants rotate through incident commander, operations, medical, staging, perimeter, and other key positions so they understand how each role affects the whole incident.
Each incident ends with a guided after‑action review led by NCIER instructors, connecting decisions and timelines back to the ASIM Checklist and your local policies.
You leave ASIM Advanced with a stronger shared picture of how your system performs under pressure, where the friction points are, and what readiness work needs attention next.
Bring your full team into the same incident before a real one forces the issue.
Hosts provide the venue and up to 60 participants across law enforcement, fire/EMS, dispatch, PIO, and emergency management. NCIER brings the mobile NIMSPro™ simulation lab, instructor team, AV, incident scenarios, and all course materials.

Which part(s) of the course was LEAST valuable to you? Please explain why.
In the computer program the time that it took to slow down triage and treatment added a level of frustration that may not be needed. Several times the RTF only had 1 FD personnel instead of the typical 3 in our area slowed down the triage.
