What constitutes 'good training'

Thanks for your comments Shazz-zam.

We know that cabin crew have, in fact, initiated evacuations without reference to the tech crew and so it is important that this process works. And your point about evacuations on stand is well made. A 747 had exactly that at Sydney, believe, and it was very badly handled. Ironically, the crew had just rehearsed the exact scenario in recurrent SEP

I'm not just looking at the evacuation but also the interim period while the AFRS etc are deploying.

So, given that training doesn't always work (if we think about the Sydney event), I suppose my question is really 'what does constitute effective training to cope with an evacuation and its immediate aftermath'.
