Abstract
The increased availability of powerful multimedia computers has enabled many corporate security groups to adopt a variety of computerised training simulators. Unfortunately, these organisations may adopt or develop training simulators which have not been properly validated. Without proper training validation, significant organisational effort may be expended without realising any improvement in operational performance. This paper offers security managers and security training programme developers a set of guidelines to ensure that a potential training simulator is properly examined with respect to training validity before widespread corporate adoption. This approach is illustrated using data from the Bomb Threat Training Simulator project, for which the research and development were supported under award number 96-IJ-CX-0025 from the Office of Justice Programs, National Institute of Justice, US Department of Justice. Points of view in this paper are those of the authors, and do not necessarily represent the official position of the Department of Justice.
