Complex and hyper-realistic simulations
Developing HEAT (Hostile Environment Awareness Training) courses isn’t exactly child’s play.
Key elements of every HEAT course are the simulations which have to be hyper-realistic. A simulation can differ from a violent hostage taking by a rebel group to a simple interaction in the street with a corrupt businessman.
To make a simulation realistic you need manpower, equipment, a venue and a planning. One simulation is delivered by one or more trainers and several actors. It also includes props (uniforms, medical equipment, weapons etc) and a setting like a war-torn village.
When you have a multitude of simulations, in multiple locations and several participant groups, it gets complicated.
