SAR Fundamentals issues
Issues related to mock search from SAR Fundamentals perspectives
- small groups of students, typically 2-4 students
 - if available, each group of students has one experienced searcher with them
 - emphasize to experienced searcher that unlike previous training, Type 1 search is fast, hussle, no purposeful wandering
 -  each student gets a chance to take Team Leader role
- scheduled switching, called by overhead team
 
 - groups are ghosted by an evaluator
 - ghosts can teach, but shouldn't participate
 - ghosts may wander between student teams if there's not enough of them
 - ghosts should have a separate radio channel to the overhead team, search planners
 - ghosts should have map of segment boundaries
 
- Students tend to want to know in the critique the exact location of clues not found on mock
 
Suggestion for future mock searches:
- use current version of forms
 - use call signs according to current SAR Alberta communications standard
