This 10-Minute Training Tactical Decision Game presents a first-arriving officer with a realistic vacant row house fire scenario. Participants must rapidly assess conditions, identify critical cues, and establish an initial strategy while operating under time pressure and incomplete information.
This training focuses on:
– Initial size-up and cue recognition
– Strategy selection and risk assessment
– Fire behavior or hazard indicators and operational implications
– Tactical priorities and resource deployment
– Command presence and operational communication
The exercise is designed for company officers and is suitable for company-level training, officer development programs, and command competency workshops. It supports facilitated discussion using recognition-primed decision-making and naturalistic decision-making principles.
The downloadable PDF includes the scenario narrative, visual cues (when applicable), participant questions, and an additional learning section with recommended follow-on training activities related to the focus of the scenario.
