exercise within the progressive series is linked to a set of common program priorities and designed to test associated capabilities. Reporting: • Recipients are required to develop a multi -year TEP that identifies a combination of exercises and associated training requirements that address priorities identified in the TEPW. The TEP shall be submitted to hseepna,fema.dhs.gov 90 days after the completion of the TEPW. States are encouraged to post their training and exercise schedules to the National Exercise Scheduling System (NEXS) at https: / /www.fema.gov /exercise. • Recipients should provide a list of completed training courses and exercises and the Training and Exercise Data Table to be included in the Quarterly Performance Progress Report. • Recipients must include the percent completion of the TEP outlined in the FY 2016 EMPG Program Work Plan to be included in the Quarterly Performance Progress Report. • In order to report on the required exercises, recipients can either submit one After Action Report/Improvement Plan (AAR/IP) for the culminating full -scale exercise from all 5 exercises conducted within a 12 -month period; or individual AAR/IPs for each of the 5 exercises to hseepAfema.dhs.gov, and the appropriate Regional EMPG Program Manager no later than 90 days after completion of the exercise.
