HANDBOOK Evaluation of Exercises

This handbook describes how a staff and decision exercise, oriented towards crisis management may be evaluated. The evaluation will cover both the behavior of the exercise participants and the impact of the chosen exercise format on outcome. The handbook of evaluation primarily targets professionals and practitioners within authorities, municipalities or organizations, who already possess a good level of knowledge about training operations in general. The handbook is part of support of methods aimed at developing actors’ ability to conduct and evaluate exercises independently.
