Course Aim
To provide an overview of principles, framework and processes for implementing the Business Continuity Management System and to enable delegates to apply this knowledge to develop their own processes and criteria.
Course Description
When faced with unexpected disruptions, organizations with an effective Business Continuity Management System (BCMS) based on ISO 22301 not only benefit from protecting their reputations and retaining customers, but they also enhance their status as competitors struggle to overcome similar challenges.
The starting point for success lies in implementing the BCMS. If this is done well, your organization will have an international best practice framework from which to build resilience and help it keep operating when unforeseen situations arise. You can also save time and money by doing things right first time. How sure are you of what to do,
when, and how?
In this course, an expert instructor will use a step-by-step approach to guide you through the implementation process. The requirements of ISO 22301 will be tackled from an implementation perspective, and the areas that organizations traditionally find tricky focused upon.
Through practical exercises, group activities and class discussions, you will develop your BCMS implementation knowledge and skill including risk assessment and business impact analysis. A take-home toolkit will also provide you with useful information that can be referenced during your organization’s implementation process.
