Bridging the Gap
Ep. 3 - PART 1: Improving Exercise Design and Evaluation; the XF Score (TM)
Is your organization better prepared today after completing a tabletop exercise or training? How did the experience better position you to face a threat or hazard?
If it is difficult to answer these questions, how do you know the exercise was an effective use of time and resources?
In Part 1 of Episode 3 of Bridging the Gap, preparedness experts introduce you to the XF ScoreTM; a rubric for analyzing the effectiveness of tabletop exercises and trainings for crises.
The creators of the XF ScoreTM speak with Pete Gaynor, former DHS Acting Secretary and former FEMA Administrator, about how this new evaluation tool allows for a better outcome than the Homeland Security Exercise and Evaluation Program, or HSEEP. Created by FEMA, HSEEP provides a set of principles for evaluating exercise programs. The XF ScoreTM helps to prove whether your agency is more prepared because of the training and allows you to address weaknesses in a revised training plan.
Stay tuned for Part 2 of this podcast episode: once you’ve collected data from your training or exercise evaluation, how do you interpret and utilize it to strengthen future plans?
