What is a test?
• Regularly scheduled drills, exercises, and appropriate follow-through activities, designed for assessment and g , gevaluation of emergency plans and capabilities.
Drill
• A drill is a coordinated, supervised exercise activity, normally used to test a single specific operation or function.
• With a drill, there is no attempt to coordinate organizations.
THIS ISNOTA TESTA TEST
Tabletop
• A tabletop exercise is a facilitated analysis of an emergency situation in an informal, g y ,stress-free environment.
• It is designed to elicit constructive discussion as participants examine and resolve problems based on existing operational plans and g p pidentify where those plans need to be refined.
Functional exercise
• A functional exercise is a fully simulated interactive exercise that tests the capability of an organization p y gto respond to a simulated event.
• The exercise tests multiple functions of the organization’s operational plan.
• It is a coordinated response to a situation in a time-pressured, realistic simulation.
Full-scale exercise
• A full-scale exercise simulates a real event as closely as possible. It is an exercise designed to evaluate the as poss b e t s a e e c se des g ed to e a uate t eoperational capability of emergency management systems in a highly stressful environment that simulates actual response conditionssimulates actual response conditions.
• To accomplish this realism, it requires the mobilization d t l t f land actual movement of emergency personnel,
equipment, and resources.
f• Ideally, the full-scale exercise should test and evaluate most functions of the emergency management plan or operational plan.g p p p
