2025-02-26 10:00 - 11:30 | ASCIP Training Room, 12610 Park Plaza Drive, Cerritos, CA, 90703, United States
Emergency exercises can be fun but are also demanding on time and resources. With proper planning exercises can help facilitate change in the agency’s emergency management practices and employees’ attitudes towards training and exercises. In order to “win people over” to emergency preparedness, it is important to offer exercise participants a positive and organized experience. This workshop will provide strategies and tools to be used in designing, developing, conducting, and evaluating table-top, functional and full-scale exercises with school employees. The tools provided can be replicated for use in any educational institution and for any type of exercise and will alleviate much of the planning stress.
