Preppr U

An AI-Powered Exercise Design Lab for Emergency Management Students

Written by

Justin Snair

Preppr U is an experimental initiative that combines cutting-edge AI tools with hands-on learning to prepare the next generation of emergency management professionals. This program transforms the classroom into a dynamic exercise design lab where students not only use Preppr.ai to create disaster exercises but also gain direct support and mentorship from the Preppr team—including yours truly.

Preppr U is a collaborative experience that empowers students to:

  • Design realistic, impactful disaster exercises using the Preppr platform.

  • Ask questions and receive guidance directly from the Preppr team.

  • Learn the principles of exercise design while exploring how AI enhances emergency planning.

How Does Preppr U Work?

  1. Facilitated Learning: The Preppr team will help organize and facilitate the program, ensuring students get the most out of the experience.

  2. Hands-On Design: Students will use Preppr to create disaster scenarios, working through the platform’s guided and flexible design workflows.

  3. Ask the Experts: Participants will have the opportunity to ask questions, troubleshoot challenges, and receive real-time advice from Preppr team members.

  4. Iterate and Improve: Students will refine their exercises based on feedback and learn how to evaluate and enhance their designs.

Think of it Like an Exercise Design Lab

Preppr U is more than just a classroom activity—it’s an immersive lab experience where students collaborate, experiment, and build their skills in exercise design. By combining AI tools with direct mentorship, Preppr U helps participants bridge the gap between academic theory and the practical demands of emergency management.

Why Join Preppr U?

  • Learn by Doing: Students don’t just study emergency management concepts—they actively apply them in a real-world context.

  • AI in Action: Explore how Preppr’s AI-driven tools simplify and enhance exercise design.

  • Mentorship: Get direct access to the Preppr team for guidance and support throughout the program.
