On May 10, 2016 the Crisis Management and Disaster Response Center of Excellence (CMDR COE) for the second time hosted the Partnership Real time Information, Management and Exchange system (ePRIME) training course. This event is organized by the Cooperation and Regional Security Division, NATO HQ International Military Staff.This course was held on 10-12 May 2016 and is designed for beginners with very little or no experience with ePRIME system, involving 28 participants from NATO and 18 partner nations. For the second time this course is organized off-site, away from NATO.   E-PRIME started in 2001 as a collaboration between NATO and Switzerland in support of Partnership for Peace (PfP). Since the PfP members are geographically separated and used incompatible platforms, all of the information regarding the cooperation programs is exchanged over the Internet. E-PRIME ensures that the exchange is secure and that members are protected.  E-PRIME (Partnership Real-Time Information, Management and Exchange System) is NATO’s official management and education tool for the development and review of the NATO cooperation frameworks (Internet based and pаssword protected).   The ePRIME Partnership Cooperation Menu (PCM) covers the following cooperation programmers and countries:    • The Partnership for Peace (PfP);   • The Mediterranean Dialogue (MD);    • The Istanbul Cooperation Initiative (ICI);   • Military Training and Exercise Programme (MTEP);   • Afghanistan, Australia, Iraq, Japan, Republic of Korea, Mongolia, New Zealand, Pakistan.
