Practitioner Certificate in Business Continuity Management (PCBCM) Training Course
An ISEB accredited business continuity management training course oriented heavily to practical exercises and aimed at those with existing BCM experience.
This 5 day BCS/ISEB accredited course which prepares delegates to sit and pass the Practitioner Certificate in Business Continuity Management examination makes full use of current standards such as the BS 25999 Business Continuity Management Standard. The training course utilises practical exercises to provide delegates with extensive hands-on experience of all the key components of implementing business continuity management. The PCBCM examination (which is held quarterly) comprises of questions based on a scenario plus separate multi choice and short answer questions.
This PCBCM qualification represents a major benchmark in measuring the skills of business continuity professionals. It addresses business continuity management from an independent perspective and provides delegates with the opportunity to carry out high level business impact analyses, risk assessments as well as preparing business continuity plans, a schedule of tests and a high level business continuity awareness campaign.
URM's PCBCM Course has also been approved by the Institute of Information Security Professionals (IISP). The meaning of IISP accreditation is that the Institute has assessed the course materials and methodologies and determined that it meets its stated objectives. Furthermore, it has verified that the course meets the claimed competency level against IISP's skills matrix. The IISP assessor's comment was "This appears to be a good well rounded course on Business Continuity Management, with acoverage of the wider topic area and a realistic level of testing and validation."
Having sat the PCBCM training course, delegates will be able to return to their organisation and make a significant contribution to the business continuity management process.
