About The Event
Middle East businesses can be interrupted by a disaster any place, any where and at any time: yet less than a third of organisations have any kind of a comprehensive recovery plan in place. Even so, plans that were viable a few years ago may not be so now.

Physical disasters, terrorist attacks, equipment and utilities failures are increasingly common place and the fact is that most organisations experiencing a disaster simply do not survive.

Furthermore, new corporate governance and financial legislation requires protection of assets by prudent planning; insurers are increasingly demanding contingency plans and compliance regulations require risk assessment and explicit continuity plans.

Business Continuity Management And IT Disaster Recovery is essential to attend if you want to create, maintain and test your own business continuity and IT recovery plan. This informative and interactive course will enable you to cost effectively protect your business and IT infrastructure through exploring the latest best practice processes and techniques.

The course is divided into two separately bookable modules:
Module One: Business Continuity Management 14 – 16 June 2009
Module Two: IT Disaster Recovery 17 – 18 June 2009

Whilst each module can be taken on its own, it is highly recommend that you attend both parts to get maximum learning.

By participating in both modules, you will have the knowledge to:
• Identify risks; evaluate their effect and justify and implement risk mitigation strategies
• Help your organisation survive a business disruption or disaster
• Create an effective business continuity organisation
• Write action-oriented business contingency plans
• Audit, test and maintain IT and telecommunications recovery plans
