EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT association OF TEXAS

On July 1, FEMA began an open review of the 2013  Homeland Security Exercise and Evaluation Program (HSEEP) doctrine to incorporate the lessons learned and best practices from the past six years of HSEEP’s use among the whole community’s exercise practitioners.  Through HSEEP, exercise program managers can develop, execute, and evaluate exercises that address the priorities established by an organization’s leaders which guide the overall direction of a progressive exercise program. 

A critical element of the HSEEP review process will be direct engagement with our state, local, tribal, territorial, federal government partners and other key stakeholders. Soliciting feedback and input will ensure this review and update to HSEEP doctrine, corresponding documents, and the HSEEP training course best meets the needs of the whole community.

- July 1 – August 15: Initial outreach and engagement with whole community
- October 1 – 21: Secondary outreach and engagement based on initial inputs.

FEMA will conduct a series of one-hour webinars that are open to all stakeholders and anyone interested in providing feedback and listening to subject matter experts discuss HSEEP.

Webinars are currently scheduled to take place:

Webinar 1 -	4:00 p.m. EDT	Thursday, July 8 (sic)
Webinar 2 –	1:00 p.m. EDT	Wednesday, July 10
