Federal Response to Hurricane Katrina Lessons Learned
(February, 2006) recommended that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) establish a National Exercise and Evaluation Program (NEEP). By extension, the NEEP designated the Homeland Security Exercise and Evaluation Program (HSEEP) as a way to standardize exercise planning and execution across governmental levels and sectors. Not all nongovernmental organizations use HSEEP in full or even partially. However, communities, states, and various federal agencies are expected to adopt and employ its tenets. Certainly, it provides the standard that is employed in the National Exercise Program (NEP). The HSEEP provides a standardized methodology for planners to use in designing, developing, conducting, evaluating, and improving exercises and training.
The HSEEP also serves as an extensive resource, replete with useful tools, templates, and examples for building exercises and determining training needs, creating training events, and assessing the merits of all related activities. As you know or are learning, training and exercises are ideally integrated, not merely linked. What is the difference between these concepts of

? Exercises that are linked to training may (or may not) draw directly or indirectly from training drills and events. Exercises that integrate training are considerably more dynamic, with training occurring as the exercise unfolds. This latter technique better develops critical thinking, problem-solving, leadership, and decision-making abilities as well.
The following illustration should clarify this benefit:
Soldiers and law enforcement personnel routinely attend weapons ranges to practice and qualify on their assigned weapons. This training helps them to maintain proficiency or improve in their individual skills. Consider an exercise that links this specific training to other training. The soldiers are completing a special obstacle course in which they run, climb rope ladders, swing over water obstacles, etc. Sometime during the course, they shoot at targets and then dismantle weapons under timed conditions and must achieve a certain score on their target hits. There is linkage to firing weapons accurately to the overall stress-inducing obstacle course.
Integrating the weapons training might look like the following: Soldiers, equipped with laser-emitting weapons, and wearing special sensors on their helmets and vests, commence to move in tactical formations proceeding through wooded (or desert, jungle, etc.) environments. Another group of soldiers, also equipped with special weapons and sensors, plays the opposing force. The two groups engage in realistic combat operations requiring accurate weapons fire, plus evasive movement, simulated first aid, evacuation of casualties, and other assorted requirements. In this case, firing a weapon potentially has an offensive and defensive role, yet is one part of a whole scenario. (You.

Online Lecture- Preparedness: Exercising the Emergency Operations Plan
Exercises play a vital role in national preparedness by enabling whole community stakeholders to test and validate plans and capabilities, and identify both capability gaps and areas for improvement. A well-designed exercise provides a low-risk environment to test capabilities, familiarize personnel with roles and responsibilities, and foster meaningful interaction and communication across organizations. Exercises bring together and strengthen the whole community in its efforts to prevent, protect against, mitigate, respond to, and recover from all hazards. Overall, exercises are cost-effective and useful tools that help the nation practice and refine our collective capacity to achieve the core capabilities in the National Preparedness Goal.
The different types of exercises that may be included in the multi-year plan are described in the following sections.
Discussion-Based Exercises
Discussion-based exercises include seminars, workshops, tabletop exercises (TTXs), and games. These types of exercises can be used to familiarize players with, or develop new, plans, policies, agreements, and procedures. Discussion-based exercises focus on strategic, policy-oriented issues. Facilitators and/or presenters usually lead the discussion, keeping participants on track towards meeting exercise objectives.
Seminars
Seminars generally orient participants to, or provide an overview of, authorities, strategies, plans, policies, procedures, protocols, resources, concepts, and ideas. As a discussion-based exercise, seminars can be valuable for entities that are developing or making major changes to existing plans or procedures. Seminars can be similarly helpful when attempting to assess or gain awareness of the capabilities of interagency or inter-jurisdictional operations.
Workshops
Although similar to seminars, workshops differ in two important aspects: participant interaction is increased, and the focus is placed on achieving or building a product. Effective workshops entail the broadest attendance by relevant stakeholders.
Products produced from a workshop can include new standard operating procedures (SOPs), emergency operations plans, continuity of operations plans, or mutual aid agreements. To be effective, workshops should have clearly defined objectives, products, or goals, and should focus on a specific issue.
Tabletop Exercises
A TTX is intended to generate discussion of various issues regarding a hypothetical, simulated emergency. TTXs can be used to enhance general awareness, validate plans and procedures, rehearse concepts, and/or assess the types of systems needed to guide the prevention of, protection from, mitigation of, response to, and recovery from a defined incident. Generally, TTXs are aimed at facilitating conceptual understanding, identifying strengths and areas for improvement, and/or achieving changes in perceptions.
During a TTX, players are encouraged to discuss ...
• Be able to describe the difference between preparedness and readiness.
Preparedness: is planning, development of SOPs, specification of roles and responsibilities, staging of equipment, training staff, connecting integral systems, and exhibiting masterful awareness of required actions and tasks related to an emergency response function.
-Deals with all the preliminary training, standard operating procedures (SOPs), equipment practice, and performing of the routines of emergency response
Readiness: is the actual demonstration and execution of essential emergency functions and tasks at the highest possible level of effectiveness in an actual crisis or in realistic emergency exercise situations.
-is the actual demonstration of emergency response capability under deployed conditions to respond effectively to all-hazard crisis.
page. 2
• Be able to describe the difference between an Emergency Operations Plan (EOP) and an Exercise Plan (ExPlan)
• DIFFERENCES: the objectives of each. EOP provides the pre-disaster guidance outlining what safety measures and protective actions can be completed given an emergency situation. EXPlan outlines how a group of emergency works and first responders will be expected to handle and overcome an emergency situation.
• Roles and responsibilities are delineated by EOPs and ExPlans are designed to test them.
• Page 5
Emergency Operations Plan (EOP): intended to provide an overall guide outlining major facilities, buildings, risk zones, and expected hazards for which the managing or governing, organization is responsible to safeguard.
Objective 1: identify the risk and hazard issues for the territorial space that the organization, group, business, or government retains for responsibility to protect and safeguard. Provide guidance to inhabitants, employees, visitors, and all who enter the risk domain and territory bored by the EOP on what to do and how to behave in different risk, hazard, or crisis situations.
Outline steps necessary for reacting to an emergency event and they will usually identify which organizational unit is primarily responsible for responding to the crisis and getting it under control. Written in two ways: innocent unsuspecting victims OR highly trying and skilled workers and responders.
Exercise Plan (ExPlan): is an outline of how the emergency rescue workers and first responders decide to handle the crisis. It may involve well-known situation like orderly evacuation of a dormitory or office building for a bomb threat. Or it can be complex and unexpected how to protect workers on upper floors from toxic fumes in air handling system or evacuate a major railway from tanker spill of chlorine gas.
The company was formed in 1908 as an investment company of Buick Motor Company with William C. Durant as the owner. It proliferated to acquire other companies such as Oldsmobile, Oakland, Rapid Motor Vehicle Company, and McLaughlin of Canada. In 1929, the company expanded to be the leading passenger car manufacturer surpassing the Ford Motor Company, which was the leading manufacture. It proceeded and extended its operations overseas, where it became the world's leading motor vehicle manufacturer in the world by 1931

Capstone Project Part V: Action Plans
A theme throughout this course has been that human and social services professionals constantly apply theories and processes to address issues and challenges. As a social change agent, leader, and advocate, you should be able to apply relevant theories and processes to implement and support change on a local and global scale. As always, codes of ethics should provide guidance as you attempt to bring about change. As the final step in the development of your strategic plan, you will develop an action plan for each year of the strategic plan. For example, your plan might start off with strategic goals at the local level with plans to take these goals national or international in following years of the strategic plan.
To prepare:
Review the feedback from your Instructor regarding the components of your strategic plan in Weeks 3, 4, and 6–8.

Assessment 3
Disaster Plan With Guidelines for Implementation: Tool Kit for the Team
Overview: Develop a disaster preparedness tool kit for a community or population. Then, develop a 5-slide presentation for your care coordination team to prepare them to use the tool kit to execute a disaster preparedness plan.
Note: The assessments in this course build upon the work you completed in previous assessments. Therefore, complete the assessments in the order in which they are presented.
Disaster planning is vital to ensuring effective and seamless coordination, throughout the recovery period, among those affected by the disaster and an extensive array of health care providers and services. Care coordination, as part of an overall disaster response effort, helps ensure that victims receive needed care as access to providers and services are gradually restored over time.

This assessment provides an opportunity for you to develop a disaster preparedness tool kit for a community or population of your choice, and prepare your care coordination team to use the tool kit to execute that plan.
By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:
Competency 1: Propose a project for change, for a community or population, within a care coordination setting.
Identify the key elements of a disaster preparedness tool kit for providing effective care coordination to a community or population.
Competency 2: Align care coordination resources with community health care needs.
Assess the care coordination needs of a community or population in a disaster situation.
Identify the personnel and material resources needed in an emergency to provide the necessary coordinated care.
Competency 3: Apply project management best practices to affect ethical practice and support positive health outcomes in the delivery of safe, culturally competent care in compliance with applicable regulatory requirements.
Describe standards and best practice methods for safeguarding the provision of ethical, culturally-competent care in challenging circumstances.

Large and globally disbursed businesses have a wealth of resources available to them, especially when it comes to implementing their business continuity plans to continue its operations. Apart from the availability of resources, a number of these businesses have brand recognition and are able to resume operation regardless if it needs to be relocated. However, small businesses do not have access to unlimited financial, technological, and personnel resources. Furthermore, they are deficient in brand recognition, so it becomes important for them to remain in close proximity to where it is known to its customer base. Yet, when a disaster cripples a small businesses ability to continue its operation in its current location, a number of these smaller operations close its doors.
Because small businesses do not have the financial backing to continue its operation when a catastrophe strike is it possible for them to develop a business continuity plan? Is this in their financial ability? Explain why or why not. If so, elaborate on some of the elements that you think are critical to include in the business continuity plan for the small business. If not, discuss why a business continuity plan is not economically feasible. Discuss what options those who cannot afford BC plans may have. What about the Federal or state government, does either entity have an obligation to help these small businesses restore its operations? Why or why not? If so, is the obligation on a personal or business level? Elaborate on your position. Discuss what resources are offered by the agency to assist small businesses during a disaster.
Ensure that your initial response adheres to the discussion board requirements as outlined in the syllabus.
Also, respond to at least two postings from Wk 6 DB.

Assignment 2 Recipe for Success!Every individual approaches life .docxjosephinepaterson7611
Assignment 2: Recipe for Success!
Every individual approaches life and situations differently. We all use communication as a means to express ourselves. However, communication is as much about listening as it is about talking. Communication is a mutual exchange.
Everyone has had a disagreement with someone in which the other person may respond with “You aren’t listening to me!” or “You don’t understand me!” The fact is, you are not validating the other person or are perceived as someone who is not providing validation. Validation can defuse a potentially explosive scenario.
Consider your personal experiences and communication skills.
What are the skills you use to communicate and how do they impact your interactions with others?
How do you plan to manage conflict communication?
Do you set a goal for the outcome you are seeking to achieve?
Do you consider your audience?
What point of view do you try to convey?
What is your message or argument in communication?
Have you ever applied the principles above? Have they worked for you? If not, what has worked for you?
Write your responses in two to three paragraphs. Be sure to incorporate terms, concepts, and theory from your readings to support your comments.

Assignment 2 Recipe for Success!Every individual approaches life .docxjosephinepaterson7611
Assignment 2: Recipe for Success!
Every individual approaches life and situations differently. We all use communication as a means to express ourselves. However, communication is as much about listening as it is about talking. Communication is a mutual exchange.
Everyone has had a disagreement with someone in which the other person may respond with “You aren’t listening to me!” or “You don’t understand me!” The fact is, you are not validating the other person or are perceived as someone who is not providing validation. Validation can defuse a potentially explosive scenario.
Consider your personal experiences and communication skills.
What are the skills you use to communicate and how do they impact your interactions with others?
How do you plan to manage conflict communication?
Do you set a goal for the outcome you are seeking to achieve?
Do you consider your audience?
What point of view do you try to convey?
What is your message or argument in communication?
Have you ever applied the principles above? Have they worked for you? If not, what has worked for you?
Write your responses in two to three paragraphs. Be sure to incorporate terms, concepts, and theory from your readings to support your comments.

Assignment 2 RA 2 Personality Characteristics and Criminal Behavio.docxjosephinepaterson7611
Assignment 2: RA 2: Personality Characteristics and Criminal Behavior
A particular set of personality characteristics does not turn a person into a criminal. However, a criminal will have the same set of characteristics. This concept may not be easy to understand. Here is another example: all college graduates have attended college, but not everyone who attended college is a college graduate. The mistake "if A then B" is the same as "if B then A" is a common one in research, criminal investigation, and profiling.
Criminal profiling is a difficult task. Complete the following three parts and present it in your report.
Part I
Identify at least five offense characteristics of each of the following crimes: sex offense, murder, acquisitive crime, organized crime, and terrorism.
Part II
Choose two offenses for those listed in
Part I
. Using the selected characteristics, complete the following for each of the two offenses you selected:
Analyze the selected characteristics to develop a forensic profile for that particular type of offense. For example, how would you use the two offense characteristics you have selected for murder to develop inferences regarding the personality of a murderer?
Explain how an offender's level of cognitive and emotional functioning, as well as social and environmental factors, could contribute to his or her maladaptive behavior in each of the above offenses.
Identify and justify the types of tests and/or personality measures that might be used to gather additional information for each of the two offenses.
Identify and justify the type of collateral information you would need to learn about the offender in the case of each of the two crimes.
Part III
Identify the differences in ethical standards between a criminal investigation and a psychological interview.
Offer your recommendations for future research needed to advance the science and research of psychological profiling techniques.
Discuss the different ethical considerations one must follow as an investigator and as a psychologist.
Support your responses giving reasons and examples from 8–10 scholarly resources.
Write a 7- to 9-page report in a Microsoft Word document. Apply APA standards to citation of sources.
Your paper should be written in a clear, concise, and organized manner; demonstrate ethical scholarship in accurate representation and attribution of sources; and display accurate spelling, grammar, and punctuation.

Assignment 2 RA 2 Contemporary Issues and Methods AnonymousIn t.docxjosephinepaterson7611
Assignment 2: RA 2: Contemporary Issues and Methods: Anonymous
In today's world, technology must be considered when examining the psychology of espionage. Additionally, societal response is a key in understanding the impact of these acts. In this assignment, you will have the opportunity to analyze the relationship between cyber activity compromising national security information and the social media response.
The government organization for which you work has taken notice of the actions of a group named "Anonymous" against the Church of Scientology, among others. In order to better prepare, your organization wants you to analyze, from a forensic psychological perspective, a potentially significant compromise of national security information via a cyber attack. You have been instructed to use the attack on Scientology, the HBGary attack, or other significant cyber attacks credited to Anonymous as your basis of comparison.
Tasks:
Using the Argosy University online library resources and other reputable, valid sources, research the group Anonymous and its cyber-hacking activities, paying particular attention to the actions against the group's methods. Use your interrogatories (who, what, where, when, how, and why) to guide your research.
Write a 10- to 12-page report that analyzes the impact this group has (or may have) on the U.S. (societal impact, including economic and infrastructure), corporate America (business impact), and the government (political impact).
In your report, address the following:
Provide a synopsis of the group's methods, goals, and activities. Make sure you address its actions against its target as well as its overall activities, goals, and methods. Also, include an explanation of the group's members and its makeup (e.g., the demographics and characteristics of the group members).
Discuss motivations and possible explanations for the group's behavior. Identify the psychological constructs and processes and explain the group's actions. For example, describe what types of social psychological constructs reinforce its membership. Social psychology research on group dynamics will help in this explanation.
Analyze the impact of a potential attack on the US government. At minimum, address the following:
How vulnerable is the US government to a potential cyber attack?
What parts of the IC are most affected by a potential cyber attack on US systems? Why?
Analyze the impact of a potential attack on society. At minimum, address the following:
What role would the social media play in future incidents of espionage and counterintelligence (CI) activities?
What would be society's response to the attack? Would society be supportive or nonsupportive? How would it be divided? Justify your answers.
What would be the real and intangible consequences of Anonymous's hacking activities? What would be the positive and negative impacts of its actions on society? Overall, would society benefit from or be hurt by such actions? Justify your answers..

Assignment 2 Policy IdentificationAccording to the Council .docxjosephinepaterson7611
Assignment 2: Policy Identification
According to the Council on Social Work Education, Competency 5: Engage in Policy Practice:
Social workers understand that human rights and social justice, as well as social welfare and services, are mediated by policy and its implementation at the federal, state, and local levels. Social workers understand the history and current structures of social policies and services, the role of policy in service delivery, and the role of practice in policy development. Social workers understand their role in policy development and implementation within their practice settings at the micro, mezzo, and macro levels and they actively engage in policy practice to effect change within those settings. Social workers recognize and understand the historical, social, cultural, economic, organizational, environmental, and global influences that affect social policy. They are also knowledgeable about policy formulation, analysis, implementation, and evaluation.
Walden’s MSW program expects students in their specialization year to be able to:
Evaluate the implication of policies and policy change in the lives of clients/constituents.
Demonstrate critical thinking skills that can be used to inform policymakers and influence policies that impact clients/constituents and services.
This assignment is intended to help students demonstrate the behavioral components of this competency in their field education.
To prepare
: Working with your field instructor, identify a social problem that is common among the organization (or its clients) and research current policies at that state and federal levels that impact the social problem. Then, from a position of advocacy, identify methods to address the social problem (i.e., how you, as a social worker, and the agency advocate to change the problem). You are expected to specifically address how both you and the agency can effectively engage policy makers to make them aware of the social problem and the impact that the policies have on the agency and clients.
The Assignment (2-3 pages):
Identify the social problem
Explain rational for selecting social problem
Describe state and federal policies that impact the social problem
Identify specific methods to address the social problems
Explain how the agency and student can advocate to change the social problem

Assignment 2 Needs AssessmentDue Week 5 and worth 175 points.docxjosephinepaterson7611
Assignment 2: Needs Assessment
Due Week 5 and worth 175 points
You and your assigned classmate(s) have formed a human resource consulting company. You have been hired to provide training to the sales force for an automobile dealership. As part of your preparation for this consulting engagement, you and your team members must determine how best to approach the automobile dealership to engage the interest of the decision makers. Your part of this assignment is to propose the types of needs assessment tools that could be used to determine how to design and develop the automobile dealerships training programs. These could include software, models, or analysis methods. Once you complete your need assessment, you must now meet with the owner of the dealership to discuss the needs assessment. Do Not Create a Training Program!!!
From the perspective of a team member, write a three to four (3-4) page paper in which you:
1. Prepare, in outline form, the process your team could use to conduct the needs assessment for your client based upon the articles you selected. (You will use a hierarchical topic and sentence outline for this paper only.)
Review chapter 4 on needs assessments. It discusses different types of assessments. Select the best one(s) to use to gather information. Keep in mind that you are trying to find out the organizations needs related to their sale force. Hence, you need to outline the method you are going to use to gather information and make a recommendation to management on what type of training may be required. Use this information in conjunction with your research from the week 3 discussion.
2. Identify two (2) possible impediments to this approach and discuss how you will overcome them.
The text also discusses obstacles to conducting needs assessments such as time, cost, leadership buy-in, employee willingness to participate. The most common are time to conduct a thorough assessment and cost. You should mention the others briefly as supporting information.
3. Evaluate the feasibility of your approach to what is commonly done in the field.
Feasibility is the likelihood your process would happen in this industry. Is your process a standard practice?
4. Explain why your needs assessment is critical to the development of the training program you plan to deliver.
Your goal here is to answer what can happen if you develop training without understanding the training needs and why it is important to determine the issues correctly to avoid wasting time and money, in addition to not solving the problem. Remember you are training the sales force but the training may not be sales related it could be a process, time management, or low morale. This is what your consulting company has been hired to find out.
5. Use at least two (2) quality academic resources in this assignment.
Two resources in addition to your textbook for maximum points.
Review the week 3 discussion thread where you can find other types of needs assessment processes. If.

Assignment 2 Marketing of the Acquisition by EDUSIn this assign.docxjosephinepaterson7611
Assignment 2: Marketing of the Acquisition by EDUS
In this assignment, you will research information related to the marketing and promotion of the acquisition by EDUS and provide an assessment.
Click here to review the EDUS case
and consider the following:
Topics for Research and Analysis
Promotional Goals
: Identify specific objectives related to the promotion of EDUS's acquisition of the institution. In addition, identify specific objectives related to informing potential students of new capabilities and offerings resulting from the acquisition. (Promotional goals vary. Some organizations need to create awareness of their product's benefits compared to competitors. Other promotional goals may involve communicating new uses for an item, or informing customers or lower prices.)
Business Environment
: Identify cultural and legal factors that might influence promotional decisions – both in announcing the acquisition within the region and recruiting new students to the institution. (In some countries, certain information is required in television commercials selling products aimed at children.)
Media Plan
: Analyze media availability to determine cost-efficient methods of communicating with potential students within the country and within the geographic region. (While television, radio, newspapers, magazines, and the Internet may be common in industrialized countries, developing economies may require other different media. In some countries, advertising messages are broadcast through large speakers mounted on moving trucks.)
Promotional Strategy
: Compare the benefits of push-and-pull promotions for acquiring new students at the institution. Devise a promotional strategy that will help EDUS expand the student body and also inform potential students of increased capability of the institution resulting from this acquisition.
Economic, Cultural, and Political-Legal Environment
: Investigate the economic, cultural, and political-legal environment that might affect promotional messages and media relevant to this acquisition.
Recommended Actions
: Recommend EDUS actions related to promotional goals, needed adaptations due to cultural or legal factors, and a media plan. Provide evidence to support your recommendations.
Conclusions
: Draw conclusions about the material you have presented. The opinions or judgments you present should be supported by your research.
By the due date assigned

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

8-10 pages, APA formatThe Federal Response to Hurricane Katr.docx
1. 8-10 pages, APA format
The
Federal Response to Hurricane Katrina Lessons Learned
(February, 2006) recommended that the Department of
Homeland Security (DHS) establish a National Exercise and
Evaluation Program (NEEP). By extension, the NEEP
designated the Homeland Security Exercise and Evaluation
Program (HSEEP) as a way to standardize exercise planning and
execution across governmental levels and sectors. Not all
nongovernmental organizations use HSEEP in full or even
partially. However, communities, states, and various federal
agencies are expected to adopt and employ its tenets. Certainly,
it provides the standard that is employed in the National
Exercise Program (NEP). The HSEEP provides a standardized
methodology for planners to use in designing, developing,
conducting, evaluating, and improving exercises and training.
The HSEEP also serves as an extensive resource, replete with
useful tools, templates, and examples for building exercises and
determining training needs, creating training events, and
assessing the merits of all related activities. As you know or are
learning, training and exercises are ideally integrated, not
merely linked. What is the difference between these concepts of
linked
and
integrated
? Exercises that are linked to training may (or may not) draw
directly or indirectly from training drills and events. Exercises
that integrate training are considerably more dynamic, with
training occurring as the exercise unfolds. This latter technique
better develops critical thinking, problem-solving, leadership,
and decision-making abilities as well.
The following illustration should clarify this benefit:
Soldiers and law enforcement personnel routinely attend
2. weapons ranges to practice and qualify on their assigned
weapons. This training helps them to maintain proficiency or
improve in their individual skills. Consider an exercise that
links this specific training to other training. The soldiers are
completing a special obstacle course in which they run, climb
rope ladders, swing over water obstacles, etc. Sometime during
the course, they shoot at targets and then dismantle weapons
under timed conditions and must achieve a certain score on their
target hits. There is linkage to firing weapons accurately to the
overall stress-inducing obstacle course.
Integrating the weapons training might look like the following:
Soldiers, equipped with laser-emitting weapons, and wearing
special sensors on their helmets and vests, commence to move
in tactical formations proceeding through wooded (or desert,
jungle, etc.) environments. Another group of soldiers, also
equipped with special weapons and sensors, plays the opposing
force. The two groups engage in realistic combat operations
requiring accurate weapons fire, plus evasive movement,
simulated first aid, evacuation of casualties, and other assorted
requirements. In this case, firing a weapon potentially has an
offensive and defensive role, yet is one part of a whole
scenario. (You might substitute law enforcement training for an
active shooter scenario, or firefighters directing the main water
supply at a fire, as other examples.)
The HSEEP describes the
preparedness cycle
extensively. As you review HSEEP’s volumes, you will read
more about this cycle in Volume 1, Chapter 4. Like most
planning cycles, the preparedness cycle includes (among other
steps) stages of planning, exercising, evaluating and improving
plans. These steps are fairly common within planning cycles for
what should be obvious reasons. Plans require a careful and
comprehensive approach. Once they are complete, they must be
exercised as thoroughly and realistically as possible. During and
after exercises, observations and lessons must be collected,
assessed, and most importantly, acted upon. These actions
3. should include the refinement or modification of the initial
plans, as necessary. Then the cycle begins again.
Too often, managers and leaders are satisfied with the initial
establishment of plans that remain untested, are never properly
validated, or do not undergo regular review and revision. Well-
designed exercises of plans can solve all of these
insufficiencies. Yet, exercises take expertise to develop, cost
money to execute, and require time to prepare for and conduct.
Again, the HSEEP is an excellent resource to aid homeland
security professionals in selecting and conducting relevant
training, and for developing appropriate and realistic exercises.
Take into consideration the following scenario:
You are still a planner with the County Office of Emergency
Management. Since your arrival, you have reviewed all of the
plans that the office maintains. The director has asked you for
your candid assessment on the county’s plans; he requests that
you select one plan as a priority for the planning team to focus
upon, and one you can also use as an illustration for how plans
should be designed, exercised, evaluated, and refined. You have
decided to choose a subject-specific plan rather than the
county’s broader emergency operations plan. You will select
your illustrative plan from those pertaining specially to
pandemic influenza preparedness, information sharing, critical
infrastructure identification and protection, or continuity of
operations. In simulating your county’s plan, consider it
potentially inadequate, having never been tested or refined, and
being at least seven years old.
For your assignment, using any program or media resource(s),
you will prepare a formal presentation (complete with extensive
notes) that educates and trains your county EM colleagues.
Complete the following steps:
Choose one of the types of plans listed above; describe what
this type of plan is intended to do in contributing to the
county’s preparedness. (You will need to research these types of
plans independently if you are unfamiliar with them.)
Communicate the status of this plan. This will require some
4. imagination as you depict a hypothetical state for it; make the
plan as strong or weak as you desire, but be clear in your
presentation and notes as to how you assessed the plan and why
you selected it for a priority for testing or revision.
Fully explain the preparedness cycle to your teammates.
Design a model (or employ an existing version) creating or
using a picture, graphic, representation, etc., to illustrate the
cycle.
Explain what capabilities and activities each stage in the cycle
promotes to contribute to the overall effectiveness of all plans.
Explain what capabilities and activities each stage in the cycle
promotes to contribute to the overall effectiveness of this
particular plan—be specific (e.g., consider how activities that
are promoted by the cycle’s stages might differ for critical
infrastructure protection vs. pandemic influenza planning).
Describe in detail at least three important facets for designing a
valid and relevant exercise.
Explain the importance of these facets for any and all planning.
Directly relate these facets to testing or improving the plan you
have reviewed.
Choose and describe at least five important stakeholders or
partners with whom county EM planners should work.
State who they are and why are they important, especially in
developing, exercising, evaluating, and refining this plan.
Make at least one of these prospective partners a private sector
representative (real or notional).
Provide recommendations for ways the county should draw
these stakeholders into contributing to the preparedness cycle’s
activities.
What incentives might the county specifically offer each partner
to elicit enthused collaboration?
What capabilities might the county expect each partner to bring
to bear?
Suggest ways in which each partner could be integrated into an
exercise for this specific plan.
Prepare final recommendations for a way ahead, focusing the
5. county on those steps to be undertaken to eventually result in a
validated plan.
All resources that are used should be appropriately cited.
