What this lesson covers
In this lesson, you'll learn to: separate discussion-based from operations-based exercises, sequence the five HSEEP phases and the planning meetings, write a SMART exercise objective, and use the hotwash, debrief, AAR/IP and exercise roles. HSEEP sorts exercises into two families. Discussion-based exercises are seminars, workshops, tabletops and games. Facilitators lead the discussion toward the objectives.
