CMDR COE in support of a high level training
Date: (15-11-2021)
The Jordanian National Level Exercise Darb Al-Aman 2021 took place in Amman, Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan from 7 to 11 November 2021. The aim of this important training event was to enhance the Jordanian National-Level Crisis Management Capability by strengthening the response and planning capacity in face of a national-level crisis such as a terrorist attack, environmental pollution and severe weather conditions. The training audience included essential Jordanian Leadership, the Jordanian National Centre for Security and Crisis Management (NCSCM), Relevant National government and Non-government agencies (NGA) and partners (39 ministries and agencies in total).
As an important part of the DCB TF project for Jordan, the CMDR COE dispatched a team of experts, led by Centre’s Director, to participate in the execution phase of the exercise. The CMDR COE observed the exercise with the aim to provide external, independent and objective feedback about the conduct of Darb Al-Aman 2021. The CMDR COE expertise was focused mostly in the areas of the exercise evaluation, analysis and organisation of the Lessons Learned process, as well as the use of the IT technologies for organisation, conduct and management of the exercise. Nevertheless, the observation team was also able to gather valuable observations in other areas, such as: Real Life Support and exercise administration; exercise design and exercise documents; the execution of the exercise, including the Communications, Information and Knowledge Management, set up the Operational Centre, exercise Battle Rhythm, MEL/MIL, etc. As a result of its observations, the CMDR COE will submit to the NCSCM leadership a First Impression Report about the execution phase of the exercise with conclusions and recommendations for improvements.
