- Virtual Tabletop Exercise Series (VTTX) – Fixed Facility - Hazardous Material
(HAZMAT)
Emmitsburg, MD — You
are subscribed to EMI News for FEMA. This following information has recently
been updated, and is now available on http://training.fema.gov/EMI/
Exercise Description:
This exercise is the
eleventh in a series of 12 Virtual Tabletop Exercises (VTTX) that will be
offered monthly by the Emergency Management Institute (EMI). The VTTX involves
key personnel 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 (not web-based), 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. New to the VTTX program is the addition of an
After-Action Report/Improvement Plan (AAR/IP) template for completion by the
participating organization. Read more...
