Classroom Prerequisite for all FY2011 MEPP Series: EMI
requires that all MEPP applicants must complete the
Homeland Security Exercise and Evaluation Program
(HSEEP) training course. The HSEEP course has been
administered since 2005 under Training and Exercise
Integration (TEI) course catalog code MGT 330. An
HSEEP course could also be conducted as EMI code
E/L146. In addition, many States have conducted this
course and issued certificates of completion. Copies
of Certificates of Completion must be included in
your MEPP applicant package. Certificates with dates
of attendance of less than 3 days are not acceptable
unless accompanied by a course agenda which
clearly shows that the HSEEP course (also referred
to as mobile training course) was conducted in
accordance with the Plan of Instruction (POI) for
the 7 course modules and contact hours.
Completion of the EMI resident E147 HSEEP Train-the-
Trainer (TTT) course will also meet this requirement.
For more information on the HSEEP training course,
