multi-Hazard Emergency planning for
schools (E/l361)
This 4-day course is tailored to the unique planning
and exercise needs of school systems. This course
integrates all Department of Homeland Security
(DHS) doctrine into an easy-to-follow planning
process. This course follows the steps outlined in
the Comprehensive Preparedness Guide (CPG
101) and provides participants the information to
ensure alignment with recent doctrines such as the
National Incident Management System (NIMS),
National Response Framework (NRF), and the
National Infrastructure Protection Plan (NIPP). By
systematically analyzing threats/hazards, school
teams are able to identify needed enhancements to
their plans for preventing or mitigating incidents
while also preparing for, responding to, and
recovering from incidents. In addition, each team
will have an opportunity to prepare and conduct
a tabletop exercise using the Homeland Security
Exercise and Evaluation Program (HSEEP) guidelines
and tools. Revisiting their Emergency Planning Team
Assessments and Action Item Worksheets, teams will
have an opportunity to develop an implementation
and sustainment strategy to be used when they
return home.
At the end of the course, participants will be able to:
• Refine their school Emergency Operations Plan
(EOP). Throughout the course, teams will review
their existing EOP, and using a sample EOP and
other resources, determine areas for improvement.
• Conduct an EOP exercise.Teams will have several
opportunities to create and conduct drills and
tabletops designed to exercise the procedures in
their school EOP.
• Develop an action plan for sustaining their
school EOP. Throughout the course, teams will
record action items they plan to take when they
return to their school districts after this course,
including communicating their EOPs with
critical stakeholders.
