Exercises 2
Exercises 2 : "Exercises provide opportunities to test plans and improve proficiency in a risk-free environment. Exercises assess and validate proficiency levels. They also clarify and familiarize personnel with roles and responsibilities. Well-designed exercises improve interagency coordination and communications, highlight capability gaps, and identify opportunities for improvement. Exercises should: (1) Include multidisciplinary, multijurisdictional incidents. (2) Include participation of private-sector and nongovernmental organizations. (3) Cover aspects of preparedness plans, particularly the processes and procedures for activating local, intrastate, or interstate mutual aid and assistance agreements. (4) Contain a mechanism for incorporating corrective actions". (DHS, NRF, Jan 2008, 31)
