Abstract:  Los Alamos National Laboratory’s Emergency Planning and Preparedness Group utilizes an innovative exercise critique form. This form is split in two parts: the first section asks for recommendations and the action steps needed for improvements, which allows the exercise participant to inject his or her own knowledge and experience to offer a resolution to the issue; the second section requests feedback on exercise design and conduct, which allows for the exercise participant to suggest changes to future preparedness activities.
