930 - Training Opportunity - VTTX V0005 Jan 20 2013
Course Description:
This exercise is the fifth in a series of 12 Virtual Tabletop Exercises (VTTX) offered monthly by the Emergency Management Institute (EMI). The VTTX involves key personnel from a community-based organization discussing simulated scenarios in an informal setting, and can be used to assess plans, policies, training and procedures. This VTTX differs from other Tabletop exercises in that it will be conducted using Video-Teleconference (VTC) technology, and is intended to provide an opportunity for responders across the Nation to simultaneously participate in a hazard-specific facilitated discussion. Lead facilitation for the exercise will be coordinated by EMI, with local facilitation provided by the participating agency. This format will allow the common delivery of exercise materials, scenarios, modules, and discussion questions among those participating in the exercise. Read more...
