Narrative

While conducting training on one of our newest First Officers we experienced an engine failure of our Number 2 Engine upon touchdown.The First Officer flew a normal approach to a normal landing on Runway XXL in ZZZ. Immediately upon touchdown the Number 2 Engine failed (as soon as we had weight on wheels). We observed that the N1 went to zero and the ITT immediately went into exceedance and was trending upwards in temperature.At 70 KIAS; I took control of the aircraft and exited on the first available high speed taxiway. We immediately stopped the aircraft and notified ATC. With the parking brake set; we ran the appropriate QRH to secure the engine. With the Start/Stop switch in the OFF position (we did not pull fire handle) we continued to assess and manage the situation. The ITT was now trending down and went into the normal range.ATC notified us that she had dispatched fire trucks. Another aircraft behind us alerted that they did not see any indication of something wrong. At this point we (as a crew) were confident that there was no fire. However; since she had already dispatched them; we decided it would be safer to just have ARFF evaluate the situation outside before we continued to move the aircraft.We called our Cabin Crew to alert them that we were 'not in an emergency; and an evacuation would not be required; but the fire trucks were coming just to make sure there was no damage'. We advised them we would make a PA to our Customers after the phone call.In an effort to prevent an unwarranted evacuation (due to multiple fire trucks on their way); we explained over the PA to our customers that we had experienced an abnormal engine indication on touchdown and that the fire trucks were coming to inspect our aircraft just as a precaution before we could continue taxing to the gate. We told our customers that 'everything was safe and to please remain seated'.A few minutes later; about 6 fire trucks arrived. We were able to communicate over a discreet frequency. ARFF told us that there appeared to be no damage or evidence of fire and that they would follow us to the gate.With 'an all clear'; we felt it was safe to began our taxi the gate and performed the After Landing Checklist. Once at the gate with all checklists completed; we then notified Maintenance Control and made a logbook entry. We then followed the Reporting Chain outlined in the FOM.
