Cool in a Crisis! All in a day
An intensive one day training course on Disaster Recovery & Business Continuity Planning |
Pressures of work are such these days that it can be difficult taking time out to attend training events...no matter how good our intentions are!
Increasingly we have had requests from our clients to design a training course which covers the key steps involved in developing DR & BC Plans, that discuss ways in which these plans can be tested and gives some insight into how to manage a crisis. All this can be achieved in a day with the interactive and practical programme of the 'Cool in a Crisis! All in a day Training Course.
The Audience
The course is designed to suit indiviuals who have a role to play in development of plans or who could be involved in a crisis or recovery situation. You may be working in:
IT & Communications Management
Facilities Management
Organisational, Departmental or Business Area Management
Risk or Security Management
PR & Emergency Response
Internal or External Audit
Project Management
Course Objectives
Overall the course is designed to give participants an insight into the potential impact of crisis situations and how actions taken before, during and after the crisis can successfully keep impacts within acceptable limits.
Having discussed proven analysis and planning techniques, participants should be able to identify business priorities, resource requirements, feasible recovery solutions and relevant planning methods for their own organisations.
Participants will also be able to describe their roles and responsibilities in a crisis situation and agree a methodology which should allow efficient plan testing and maintenance.
Course Programme

Throughout the day participants will be able to review their level of preparedness using a specially designed questionnaire. This can be used as a 'benchmark' helping participants identify actions that need to be addressed back at the workplace.
