What is a test?
•
Regularly scheduled drills, exercises, and appropriate
g activities,, designed
g
for assessment and
follow-through
evaluation 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 IS
NOT
A TEST
Tabletop
•
A tabletop exercise is a facilitated analysis
g
y situation in an informal,,
of an emergency
stress-free environment.
•
It is designed to elicit constructive discussion
as participants examine and resolve problems
g operational
p
p
plans and
based on existing
identify where those plans need to be refined.
Functional exercise
•
A functional exercise is a fully simulated interactive
exercise that tests the capability
p
y of an organization
g
to 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 poss
possible.
