The ability to make accurate decisions is an important part of disaster and emergency medicine. Training for this requires educated instructors who can practice and evaluate the performance of different categories of staff involved in the medical management of disasters and major incidents.

These instructors should also be familiar with simulation exercises based on real scenarios, with realistic resources, real capacity of different medical facilities and training sessions performed in real time. One way to achieve this is to use the Emergo Train system® (ETS), a simulation system that can be designed to fit any scenario in any setting. ETS has been used for training and simulation in disaster medicine in several countries during the last decades.
