FY 2006 HOMELAND SECURITY GRANT PROGRAM - DECEMBER 2, 2005 g. Practical Exercise Statement. This describes any exercises associated with the module, session, or lesson. h. Evaluation Strategy. This defines the strategy to used to evaluate the module, session, or lesson (e.g., written and/or performance tests or assessments). For further information on developing courses using the instructional design methodology and tools that can facilitate the process, SAAs and TPOCs are encouraged to review the G&T Strategy for Blended Learning and access the responder training development system available at www.firstrcspondertraining. gov. Several broad categories of courses will automatically qualify for support using G&T funds and as they become identified will be included in the list of approved training not provided by G&T. Examples of these broad categories are: 1. All NIMS training approved by the NIMS Integration Center (NIC). 2. All Incident Command System (ICS) training offered through the National Fire Academy (NFA) and the Emergency Management Institute (EMI). G&T funds must be used to supplement, not supplant, existing funds that have been appropriated for the same purpose. G&T will conduct periodic reviews of all State, Territory, and Urban Area training funded by G&T. These reviews may include requests for all course materials (POVTSP) and physical observation of, or participation in, the funded training. If these reviews determine that courses are outside the scope of this guidance, grantees will be asked to repay grants funds expended in support of those efforts. Training conducted with G&T support must demonstrate linkage to a Target Capability and be applicable to the State, Territory, Urban Area, or homeland security strategy. States and territories are encouraged to conduct an annual Training and Exercise Plan Workshop to identify key priorities and major events over a multi-year time frame and align training and exercises in support of those priorities. A Multi-year Training and Exercise Plan will be produced from a Training and Exercise Plan Workshop to include the State's training and exercise priorities, associated training and exercise capabilities, and a multi-year training and exercise schedule. Further guidance concerning the Multiyear Training and Exercise Plan can be found the exercises discussion in section D.S.
