The most valuable portion was the Tactical role. That is the most real world position that I could be in. It was a good experience coordinating with other agencies.

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

I think the admin positions of PIO or Intelligence in this environment are not beneficial as I would not be in those positions in real life. It took away some of the training being in those roles.

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

When in the simulation, there are long periods of time if you're a police officer as part of the RTF that you are not doing anything and people tend to wander. If it could maybe have police arrive at the same time, then start having them be re-tasked with being RTFs.

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

More command or tactical scene training.

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

Being assigned a role that mirrors my real life expectations, having to take in information, make a decision either by myself or with my group, and to relay that to responding personnel. Very good.

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

The course instructors are masters of their craft. They were obviously very competent and good at relaying information. However, early on, I felt that I didn't have enough background information to hit the ground running. This all eventually fell into place as the scenarios went on, and maybe that's what is expected.

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

Nothing.
