Deployment Exercise

CITYWIDE DEPLOYMENT EXERCISE – THURSDAY, OCTOBER 17, 2019

Several times each year, Portland NETs participate in a Citywide Deployment Exercise. This helps us improve our skills, make important revisions to our Operations & Communications Plans, and inform our training plans. The next exercise will be on Thursday, October 17th from 6-9 p.m. Please register your team ASAP – this helps us better plan the event.
