    For Emergency Managers

    Hold An Exercise

    We have tabletop exercise manuals to help organizations prepare for specific hazards. Find federal resources here, too.

    A professional participates in an integrated preparedness exercise.

    Overview

    Exercises help organizations and communities build preparedness for threats and hazards. They provide a low-risk environment to test and validate plans, policies, procedures, and capabilities. 

    Hold A Drill or Exercise

    Our training and exercise division puts together hazard-specific tabletop exercise manuals for the annual spring and fall exercises for county, local, and other stakeholders.

    You don't have to use our manuals, and are encouraged to create your own workshops, drills, tabletop, functional, or full-scale exercises based on identified threats and hazards specific to your organization. 

    Our resources are designed simply to help you meet annual requirements, and can be customized to meet your needs.
