Homeland Security Exercise and Evaluation Program (HSEEP)

The Homeland Security Exercise and Evaluation Program (HSEEP) is a standardized methodology used by emergency response agencies to plan, conduct, and evaluate training exercises. Its purpose is to improve preparedness by simulating real-life disaster scenarios, identifying strengths and weaknesses in response plans, and fostering continuous improvement. HSEEP provides a consistent framework for designing exercises, documenting lessons learned, and implementing corrective actions, ensuring all participating agencies are coordinated and effective in protecting communities during emergencies.
