Exercise Types 4
Exercise Types 4 : Discussion-Based Exercises: "Discussion-based exercises familiarize participants with current plans, policies, agreements, and procedures. These exercises may also be used to develop new plans, policies, agreements, and procedures. Types of discussion-based exercises include the following: (1) Seminar. A seminar is an informal discussion, designed to orient participants to new or updated plans, policies, or procedures (e.g., a seminar to review a new Evacuation Standard Operating Procedure). (2) Workshop. A workshop resembles a seminar, but is employed to build specific products, such as a draft plan or policy (e.g., a Training and Exercise Plan Workshop is used to develop a Multi-year Training and Exercise Plan). (3) Tabletop Exercise (TTX). A tabletop exercise involves key personnel discussing simulated scenarios in an informal setting. TTXs can be used to assess plans, policies, and procedures. (4) Game. A game is a simulation of operations that often involves two or more teams, usually in a competitive environment, using rules, data, and procedure designed to depict an actual or assumed real-life situation".
