Analysis of the Requirements and Effectiveness of the Federal Civil Preparedness Training Structure.

摘要

The purpose of the study was to evaluate the extent to which the current training and education subsystem of the Defense Civil Preparedness Agency (DCPA) meets the needs of the actual civil preparedness system in the United States. A literature review and interviews with civil preparedness personnel were used to examine: (1) the extent to which the program development process for DCPA training and education is designed to identify and support operational requirements; (2) the extent to which DCPA training and education products reflect the personnel requirements of the operational system; (3) the efficacy of deployment of DCPA-derived training and education products; (4) the degree of technological expertise employed in DCPA training and education.
