DisasterAWARE® Training and Preparedness Exercises
Using our extensive hazard data and unique DisasterAWARE platform, we can help you simulate realistic hazard scenarios to help gain a deeper understanding of hazard impacts on communities. We also can assist with exercising preparedness plans in advance of real-world events. Our exercise program can help test complex networks of organizations and response activities—making sure stakeholders respond effectively under high-pressure and ever-changing circumstances. Our experts can support any type of exercise and hazard scenario. We also provide online training and instructor-led training on our DisasterAWARE platform.
Your DisasterAWARE training starts here
Watch our self-paced DisasterAWARE training videos to master the basics or request an instructor-led DisasterAWARE training on-site, at your location or ours. We can help you accomplish nearly any training objective.
Disaster Preparedness Exercises
Let us help you design and conduct scenario-based exercises in a simulated environment ahead of a real-world crisis. We support tabletop exercises, functional exercises, and full-scale exercises. Our capabilities include:
Scenario development and design
Event scripting and integration
Data integration
Training
DisasterAWARE communications
Subject matter expertise / best practices
Exercise Options
Exercises help decision makers identify as much about what goes right with disaster preparedness plans as what goes wrong. We’ve helped organizations around the world design and conduct exercises and incorporate lessons learned into planning and preparedness activities.
Scenario-based Training
- Often focused on policy or strategic issues
- Smaller scope, less complex
Tabletop Exercises
- Provides facilitated analysis of an emergency situation
- Examines policies, procedures, and operations to validate and refine plans as needed.
- Informal, stress-free environment
Functional Exercises
- Fully simulated exercise
- Realistic event, testing response capabilities in time-pressured environment
- Involves multiple functions, agencies, and organizations
Full-scale Exercises
- Tests regional, national, subnational disaster management systems
- Simulates real event as closely as possible.
- Mobilizes emergency personnel and victims (actors), equipment, and resources
Benefits of our exercise
support program
