Auditing Business Continuity Management


Businesses that have good, well tested Business Continuity Plans in place and can provide evidence to their stakeholders and customers that they are "fit for purpose" will no doubt have a far better approach to the recovery of their business; following a significant interruption. Any recovery will be in a planned and rehearsed manner, with minimal impact to the services the company provides.Businesses that have a good Business Continuity capability will have a much better understanding of their business and the resource needed to maintain a minimum level of service, but one that is acceptable to customers and one which maintains its legal and regulatory obligations.This three day course will go through each component of the BCM lifecycle in detail, providing delegates with practical exercises to help them improve their own knowledge and skills relating to Business Continuity Management.
