Practice sessions are a chance to work on individual skills, without the scheduling and scenario constraints usually associated with exercises (including drills). In other words, no pressure!
Individual proficiency is the focus. Feedback is provided so individuals will know where to improve. If you mess up, that's OK. Keep going until you get it right. And then ... keep going!
Pop-up practice sessions are a quick way to get some field experience. We pick a spot somewhere, people show up, do their thing, and then leave. You can be home for lunch. Individualized one-on-one coaching is available if you need it. The practice activity itself is about an hour. But most people usually prefer to spend a bit more time to get more practice time and mentoring, to chat with others, and to see the equipment that other people bring. It's a great way to get some ideas for your own setup.

Practice sessions should also be happening in your local jurisdiction. Contact your local Emergency Coordinator/Radio Officer to see what practice sessions may exist within the city. Better yet, offer to organize one (or, at least help with one)!
