DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant) Skilled Support Personnel play an integral role in any disaster response operation. However, several reports have found that our nation's SSP are inadequately trained to respond to incidents involving Weapons of Mass Destruction (WMD). These reports put forth dozens of recommendations for how to improve SSP training to prepare them for WMD events. One of the key recommendations was that SSP be cross-trained in the roles of first responders. Cross-training simultaneously achieves two goals: SSP will receive the same level of response training that first responders do, and SSP will be better able to effectively assist first responders during a response because they will have a better understanding of what first responders do. A report by the Federation of American Scientists found that new advanced training technologies are needed to meet the demands of WMD response training. To fill the training needs of the SSP, CHI Systems, Inc., The Entertainment Technology Center at Carnegie Mellon University (CMU), and The National Center for Biodefense at George Mason University will rapidly develop and deploy VIGILANCE, a SCORM-compliant GB training application that will harness the power of existing gaming technologies to create a compelling and engaging training experience which will be both easy to distribute and update. When completed, VIGILANCE will provide cross-training to SSP by allowing them to play the role of a first responder who is responding to a WMD incident. VIGILANCE will have a highly realistic 3-D virtual world where SSP will act as first responders and work through scenarios based on the most current training requirements for first responders.

描述（由申请人提供） 熟练的支持人员在任何救灾行动中发挥着不可或缺的作用。然而，一些报告发现，我国的SSP没有得到足够的培训，以应对涉及大规模毁灭性武器的事件。这些报告提出了几十项建议，说明如何改进SSP培训，使他们为大规模毁灭性武器事件做好准备。其中一项主要建议是，SSP应在第一反应者的角色方面进行交叉培训。 交叉培训同时实现了两个目标：SSP将接受与第一响应者相同水平的响应培训，SSP将能够更好地在响应期间有效地帮助第一响应者，因为他们将更好地了解第一响应者的工作。 美国科学家联合会的一份报告发现，需要新的先进培训技术来满足应对大规模毁灭性武器的培训需求。 为了满足SSP的培训需求，CHI系统公司，卡内基梅隆大学（CMU）的娱乐技术中心和乔治梅森大学的国家生物防御中心将快速开发和部署VIGILANCE，这是一个符合SCORM标准的GB培训应用程序，将利用现有游戏技术的力量来创建一个引人注目的和引人入胜的培训体验，这将易于分发和更新。 完成后，VIGILANCE将向SSP提供交叉培训，让他们扮演应对大规模毁灭性武器事件的第一反应者的角色。 VIGILANCE将拥有一个高度逼真的3D虚拟世界，SSP将作为第一响应者，并根据最新的第一响应者培训要求完成场景。
