At one point in all of our lives we will here someone say to another " this training is ridiculous, we will never have to do this in real life". This all most always coming from the one crew member that has something to say about everything. I will always have looked forward to that training, it gives me a chance to think outside the box more, and pushes the crew to think more then two steps ahead.
One training idea I have come up with is a adding gear as you go drill. Give your crew a chain of objectives to complete. Start them with the least amount of gear to start with and as they complete each objective add one piece of equipment for them to use. As each objective is met the next will get harder. This is not to be a timed event due to it is a thinking skill. Of course prior to sending the crew to do this you will have to think out each point along the way to make sure that they will be able to complete them with what they have.
Does your teams train only on the obvious or do your team leaders throw in curve balls every once in awhile?
