Why Attend

In this post-Covid world there remains threats that can disrupt your organization.  We need to build in resilience to absorb shock and bounce back.  We absorb shock through proactive risk management where prevention is better than cure.  We bounce back by reactive plans and procedures that are tired and tested.

This course provides delegates with the skills to be able to achieve both risk and response within a certifiable structure and by using examples of current industry good practice relevant to the industrial sector of the delegates. It also provides participants with concrete solutions, strategies and insights into the delivery of an effective Business Continuity Management System (BCMS) including a scenario based simulation exercise as the culmination of the learning.

This practical course provides participants with a framework that is aligned with the UAE NCEMA 7000:2015, Business Continuity Institute (BCI) Good Practice Guidelines (GPG) 2018 and ISO 22301:2019 Societal Security; and Business Continuity Management Systems (BCMS) requirements.
