Details
The purpose of the Exercising Best Practice Guidance is to provide a practical guide for individuals and teams who plan, prepare and deliver exercises in a civil contingency resilience setting.
This guidance replaces the Emergency planning and preparedness: exercises and training guidance (2013). It has been written with UK Government departments, agencies, Arms-Length Bodies (ALBs) and wider resilience professionals in mind and aims to help exercising colleagues design and implement impactful exercises, which in turn should improve exercising at a national and local level.聽
It is not mandatory, but it sets out a common approach for UK Government departments to increase their exercising capability, working both individually and collectively.聽This guidance aligns with and reinforces the 鈥�, which is聽a set of individual standards for LRFs to consistently identify good and leading practice, and help self-assure their capabilities and overall level of readiness.
