Workshops
Workshops represent the second tier of
exercises in the HSEEP building block approach. Although
similar to seminars, workshops differ in two important
aspects: participant interaction is increased and the
focus is on achieving or building a product (e.g., plans
and policies). Workshops provide an ideal forum for:
- Collecting or sharing information
- Obtaining new or different perspectives
- Testing new ideas, processes, or
procedures
- Training groups to perform coordinated activities
- Problem solving complex issues
- Obtaining consensus
- Building teams
Products that can be produced from a workshop include
new SOPs or EOPs, mutual aid agreements, Multiyear Exercise
Plans, and IPs that address the issues and recommendations
from an AAR. To be effective, workshops must be highly
focused on a specific issue, and the desired outcome
(product) or goal must be clearly defined.
