CRISIS MANAGEMENT COURSES
Crisis management (CM) is often confused with business continuity management (BCM). For those who had attended the institute’s BCM certification courses, you begin to notice that organisation need to increase its preparedness not only to manage a disaster but also to a crisis. Crisis does not only include physical threats but also incidents that affect the reputation of the organisation even though you still have access to your organisation. With the advent of social media and real-time updates, BCM professionals and senior management need to be crisis management aware and these courses because of the basic necessity for any senior management team members’ responsibilities. Noting that not everyone has the same level of interest, experience and job scope, BCM Institute has since designed various crisis management courses to cater to their unique backgrounds.
Courses are available in 1, 2 and 4 days and are divided into 3 levels of competencies: (1) KNOW, (2) DO and (3) MANAGE
At the end of each course, participants would be assessed through assessments or examinations to ascertain his/her level of competency. They can look forward to receiving either an
-
- Internationally recognised crisis management (CM) certification through any of our CM certification course or
-
- Singapore’s WSQ Statement of Attainment through any of our crisis management (CM) competency level course.
