Region X Training & Exercise Quarterly Compendium
(TEQC) is published on a quarterly basis and contains
basic information about regionally significant training
and exercise events occurring in the next three (3)
years.
As a companion to the Multi-Year Training & Exercise
Plan (MYTEP), TEQC is updated to coincide with
quarterly meetings of the Regional Interagency
Steering Committee (RISC) Training and Exercise
Subcommittee which meets to increase emergency
management capabilities, regional preparedness, and
to sustain operational readiness through the design and
conduct of various training and joint exercises as part
of the Plan-Train-Equip-Exercise preparedness cycle.
This edition includes events occurring between

October 2013-December 2016. The next edition will
be published in January 2014 and a call for updates
will be distributed in mid November 2013.
A regionally significant training or exercise event
includes but is not limited to the following types of
events;
training which is open for enrollment by outside
agencies,
exercises in need of evaluators or controllers,
exercises open to observers,
multi-jurisdictional training and exercises,
regional training and exercises,
and training and exercises which an agency would
like other regional partners to be aware of.
For more information about the Region X Training &
Exercise Quarterly Compendium please contact Adina
M. Pease Adina.Pease@fema.dhs.gov or at (425) 4874672.
