Training such as this was beneficial for me because I have never been a part of a mass incident scenario. I think that I may now be better prepared to aid my agency if something like this happens in my city. At least, I hope so.

I appreciated being able to work the training from all angles including media releases. I would honestly like fewer scenarios with each scenario being longer.

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

Honestly, I feel like everything was valuable. I would have just preferred to have fewer scenarios with each scenario being longer and more thorough including more components and distractions. I would also like to see more involved media relations components.

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

I just want to take a moment to express my appreciation to the instructor Adam Pendgras (spelling?). He really took the time to be positive, answer all of our questions, and give feedback for each role. I would have liked to have seen the other instructors do the same-- he really went above and beyond.

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

I would like an Advanced Response Training dealing with natural disasters (tornado, floods, etc).

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

The Public Information position. This is the position that I currently hold at my job. The information that I received and the reps as the PIO was very much needed to better prepare me in the event if I am ever put into this kind of event. Pray that something like this never happens in my community.

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

UNK I think every part was very valuable.

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

This class was by far one of the best classes that I have taken inmy career.

To always have my head on a swivel and to be prepared and hope something of this nature never happens in my community, but if so I will be ready to respond with more confidence because of this class.

As the PIO it was nice to see the insides and behind the scenes workings. Have worked with Fire ad PD but not so much the medical.

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

Dont think anything was not valuable to me.

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

Would like to see the importance of communicating with the PIO stressed a little more. Some people in different roles do not understand the importance of getting a unified message out quick as possible.

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

I would think just building on the foundation. Going through the exercises can not be done enough.
