Misconception About Business Continuity Management
"Our people will know what to do in an emergency."
Even the best employees cannot be expected to know what to do when disaster strikes. Leaving each to respond in his or her own way only adds to the confusion of an event.
"We have insurance to cover our losses."
Proper insurance coverage is important, however it may not fully cover some of the peripheral damages from an event, like loss of customers, loss of market share, or setbacks in development or release of a new product.
"We do not have the time to develop a business continuity plan."
Your fixed cost will continue after an even happen, whether or not you are open. Therefore, the time spend on developing and maintaining BCM plan will help you to return your operation to normal.
"Business continuity and disaster recovery planning are the same."
Business continuity is a proactive plan to avoid and mitigate risks associated with a disruption of operations. Disaster recovery on the other hand is a reactive plan for responding after an event.

Listen to what our students have said about us!
The Blended Learning Experience was immersive and was delivered in manageable bite sized portions. There was ample time for all participants to work on the assignments hence facilitating our self-study and revisions for the examinations.
Before taking this course, I thought I already knew the basics of Business Continuity Management and felt pretty confident in my ability to implement a Business Continuity Plan at work. I actually learned a lot of very valuable and essential information and still use the course materials for day to day work.
I initially attended the BCM 300 brick-and-mortar course back in 2019, where I earned my BCCP certification, and with the promise of returning to Singapore the following year to complete the BCCE course. The BCM Institute has been a regular partner of my organisation in educating and credentialing our Business Continuity professionals, so it was an easy decision to make to continue the completion of the courses.
