Emergency Response Tabletop Exercise Resource Center

This resource will help your institution prepare for short-term emergencies that require significant mobilization of campus staff and resources.

When a crisis strikes campus, college and university leaders must be able to mobilize staffing and resources in an efficient manner across departments to ensure an effective response. City and state governments, public health agencies, and the military rehearse emergency response procedures using tabletop exercises. Tabletop exercises are team-based simulation activities that allow leaders to practice staff and resource mobilization in response to a short-term emergency. EAB’s Emergency Response Tabletop Exercise Resource Center includes tools and prompts specifically designed for college and university leaders, to help them navigate campus crises.
