The Practitioner Certificate in Business Continuity Management (PCiBCM) course is designed to provide a hands-on approach to all stages of the business continuity management (BCM) lifecycle from conducting a business impact analysis to the exercising of business continuity plans.
Making full use of current standards (including ISO 22301), students are able to make a significant contribution to the BCM process when returning to their organisation. The PCiBCM course and associated qualification provides the opportunity for those already serving as business continuity professionals to enhance or refresh their knowledge and, in the process, gain a recognised industry qualification, regulated by the British Computer Society (BCS).
This is useful to both the individual and the employer in terms of attesting to the level of professional ability an individual has attained.
The InfoSec Skills PCiBCM course primes the student with all the knowledge needed to sit the BCS’s PCiBCM examination.
