Exercise Evaluation
Training
Control/Evaluation
Controllers and Evaluators (C/E) are the cornerstones of a successful exercise
•
Controllers ensure each exercise meets objectives
•
Evaluators capture and analyze the results
This allows an exercise to:
•
Identify improvements needed
•
Highlight best practices (Strengths)
•
Enhance preparedness
What do Controllers do?
•
Safety and security
•
Drive the entire exercise, maintaining scope, pace, and integrity
•
Simulation
•
Keep the exercise focused on stated objectives
What do Evaluators do?
•
Organize exercise evaluation
•
Observe the exercise and collect the data
•
Identify strengths, areas for improvement and additional notes during
exercise play
•
Do not focus on a single player
•
Evaluate as a position or overall function
Exercise Evaluation Guide (EEG)
•
EEGs provide a consistent tool to guide exercise observation and data
collection
•
EEGs align to selected core capabilities
•
They list capability targets and critical tasks being evaluated
•
Support development of the AAR
EEG Ratings
Four ratings on the EEG:
•
Performed without challenges (P)
•
Performed with some challenges (S)
•
Performed with major challenges (M)
•
Unable to be performed (U)
Evaluator Responsibilities
Before
the Exercise
•
Understand that the Evaluator’s primary duties are to observe, record, and
analyze player actions
•
Review the exercise documents and organizational procedures for familiarity
•
Prepare to keep an accurate record of what you observe and hear
Evaluator Responsibilities
During
the Exercise
Record the following:
•
If and how critical tasks were performed
•
How the capability target was or was not met
•
How were requests made handled
•
Any other factors contributing to the outcomes of the capability targets
Evaluator No No’s
•
Do not engage in casual conversation about the exercise/with exercise
players
•
Do not prompt players to action
•
Do not interrupt an exercise player to ask a question
C/E Collaboration During the Exercise
•
Controllers and Evaluators work as a team
•
If a player asks a question about the exercise or
how to proceed with a given issue, refer the player
to the controller.
C/E Collaboration During the Exercise Cont.
Evaluators should interact with the Controllers regarding:
•
Issues with exercise safety
•
Need to speed up or slow down play
•
Need to prompt play to generate a player response
•
Clarification of any other exercise issues
Evaluator Responsibilities
After
the Exercise
•
Ensure that all observations have been noted on the EEGs
•
Participate in the player Hotwash
•
Summarize personal notes and Hotwash notes before the C/E debriefing
•
Attend C/E debriefing after the Hotwash
•
Make sure all EEGs are signed in case additional information is needed
Trusted Agent
•
An individual who is trusted not to reveal exercise and scenario details to
players before exercise conduct.
•
Trusted agents are not exercise players.
•
Exercise Planning Team, Controllers, and Evaluators
Questions
Controllers and Evaluators play crucial roles in exercise evaluation. Controllers ensure the exercise meets objectives while maintaining safety and focus. Evaluators organize evaluation, observe, and collect data to identify strengths and areas for improvement. Exercise Evaluation Guide (EEG) provides a tool for consistent observation and data collection, aligning with core capabilities. EEG ratings help assess performance levels. Evaluator responsibilities include recording critical tasks and assessing capability targets during and before the exercise.
