The 2017 U of A Game Changer Full-Scale Exercise (FSE) is an unclassified exercise. The control of information is based more on public sensitivity regarding the nature of the exercise than on the actual exercise content. All exercise planners, Controllers, and Evaluators should use appropriate guidelines to ensure the proper control of information within their areas of expertise and to protect this material in accordance with current jurisdictional directives. Public release of exercise materials to third parties is at the discretion of the Coalition Exercise Director and the Exercise Planning Team (EPT). The Controller/Evaluator (C/E) Handbook describes the roles and responsibilities of exercise Controllers and Evaluators, and the procedures they should follow. Because the Controller/Evaluator (C/E) Handbook contains information about the scenario and about exercise administration, it is distributed to only those individuals specifically designated as Controllers or Evaluators; it should not be provided to exercise players. The Controller/Evaluator (C/E) Handbook may supplement the Exercise Plan (ExPlan) or be a standalone document.
