Run Better Tabletop Exercises with the Staff You Already Have

A short guide for emergency management leaders. It explains how a small team can design, run, evaluate, and document a facilitated, multi-group tabletop exercise consistent with HSEEP 2020, without an outside consultant.

What's inside

  • The guided path from design to close-out, step by step, with suggested timing
  • How the game board makes every group decision visible and recorded
  • Evaluation and documentation: EEGs, self-assessments, hot wash notes, and the AAR/IP package
  • How Disaster Deck lines up with HSEEP 2020 for discussion-based exercises
  • Staffing: one facilitator can run the room
  • Responsible use of AI, security and data, and plans
