CISM study material · question 990 of 1000

Which two staff roles does a tabletop exercise require, and what must both know?

  1. A coordinator and an observer — both of them entirely independent of the organisation whose own plan happens to be exercised on that one particular day here
  2. An exercise director and a set of controllers — both of them knowing the scenario that will be used on the day a long time in advance of it
  3. A simulator and an evaluator — both of them knowing the roles that each one of the participants holds during the whole of the exercise
  4. A facilitator who leads the discussion and a data collector who records it — both knowing the plan and objectives thoroughly
Show the answer

Answer: D. A facilitator who leads the discussion and a data collector who records it — both knowing the plan and objectives thoroughly

SP 800-84 states a tabletop exercise needs a facilitator to lead the discussion and a data collector to record what happens, and that both must be thoroughly familiar with the plan and the exercise objectives.
