The case method, which has been used in other fields such as business administration, is gaining attention as an approach to developing human resources capable of crisis management in the event of a large-scale disaster. This paper reports on the development of learning materials that contain examples of actions taken by infrastructure administrators and construction firms during the Great East Japan Earthquake. This paper also considers methods of using such cases in simulation classes and describes studies using the case method in on-the-job training to develop disaster-response management capabilities. Many institutions are working on passing down lessons learned from disasters to the next generation. It is believed that providing specific approaches for human resource development will not only enhance the capability of responding to expected large-scale disasters but also secure and develop human resources, one of the key issues in the civil engineering field.
