This course is excellent preparation for the Business Continuity Institute (BCI) Certificate Examination that leads to the post-nominal designation CBCI, a recognized industry credential and the launching pad for Statutory membership of the BCI. It is also the perfect choice for business continuity professionals already working in the field who are looking to complement their experience thorough some formal training on business continuity (BC). The course provides an in-depth study of the Business Continuity Management (BCM) Lifecycle. The subject matter addresses the six BCI Professional Practices as defined in the GPG, including Technical and Management Practices, taking the candidate through each stage of the BCM Lifecycle step by step.
