Describe the approach to drills and exercises designed to test and validate EOPs and crisis communications in an organization or jurisdiction that you are familiar with. Is there a regular, progressive exercise program involving key stakeholders, entities and personnel?

Do you know, or have any sense, whether comprehensive after-action reports are developed and improvement planning for the EOP or crisis communications actually occurs, resulting in improvements to the EOP?

What are the potential consequences or impacts for failure to engage seriously in drills and exercises?
