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灾难响应行动中都发挥着不可或缺的作用。然而，一些报告发现，我国的 SSP 没有接受足够的培训来应对涉及大规模杀伤性武器 (WMD) 的事件。这些报告就如何改进 SSP 培训以使其为大规模杀伤性武器事件做好准备提出了数十项建议。其中一项关键建议是对 SSP 进行急救人员角色的交叉培训。 交叉培训同时实现两个目标：SSP 将接受与急救人员相同水平的响应培训，并且 SSP 将能够在响应过程中更好地有效协助急救人员，因为他们将更好地了解急救人员的工作。 美国科学家联合会的一份报告发现，需要新的先进训练技术来满足大规模杀伤性武器应对训练的需求。 为了满足 SSP 的培训需求，CHI Systems, Inc.、卡内基梅隆大学 (CMU) 娱乐技术中心和乔治梅森大学国家生物防御中心将快速开发和部署 VIGILANCE，这是一种符合 SCORM 的 GB 培训该应用程序将利用现有游戏技术的力量来创建引人注目且引人入胜的培训体验，并且易于分发和更新。 完成后，VIGILANCE 将为 SSP 提供交叉培训，让他们扮演应对大规模杀伤性武器事件的急救人员的角色。 VIGILANCE 将拥有一个高度逼真的 3D 虚拟世界，SSP 将在其中充当急救人员，并根据急救人员最新的培训要求完成场景。
