Be one step ahead with the BS25999 Masterclass

/EINPresswire.com/ IT Governance Ltd, the global leader in Business Continuity and BS25999 information, books, tools and training, has announced last-minute special offer of its popular BS25999 Certified BCMS Lead Implementer Masterclass.

BS25999 is best practice for business continuity management, and should be considered by any organisation that wants to ensure that its business continuity planning will be both resilient and robust when required.

Natural disasters of various scales happen almost every day in different parts of the world. The eruption of the Grimsvotn volcano in Iceland, in the last few days, has caused enormous service disruptions in Europe and has lead to financial losses for many organisations.

Those organisations with good business continuity management systems (BCMS) are most likely to already have a disaster recovery plan in place and are, therefore, able to overcome the disruption and resume business quickly and efficiently.

A well-implemented BCMS provides organisations with both business continuity strategy and incident response structure. This means that organisations that have implemented BCMS can immediately undertake preventive and corrective actions when a disaster strikes.

The chaos caused by the Icelandic volcanic ash is a reminder that no organisation is safe against a disaster. Knowing what needs to be done, and how to embed business continuity management (BCM) in the culture of your organisation is important for every organisation's survival. The BS25999 Certified BCMS Lead Implementer Masterclass (www.itgovernance.co.uk/products/1435) teaches you this and much more. The course gives delegates a thorough understanding of how they should go about implementing a BCMS that complies with BS2599 and how to develop a BCM strategy.

The two-day BS25999 Certified BCMS Lead Implementer Masterclass runs from 9 June until 10 June in London and is currently offered at £245 off the original price. This limited special offer aims to raise awareness of the importance for organisations to plan further ahead. The cost of gaining this knowledge pays off, as delegates of the course recognise their greater resilience in the face of the unpredictable.

The masterclass will help delegates develop a level of resilience that will enable their organisation to survive and thrive in an increasingly difficult environment. The BS25999 Certified BCMS Lead Implementer Masterclass is, therefore, highly recommended for business professionals who are responsible for ensuring that their organisation responds to, and survives, any form of disaster - from an IT service discontinuity to a major act of nature.

Alan Calder, CEO of IT Governance, says, "There has been a lot of talk recently about cybersecurity and business resilience, and of how organisations should protect themselves from the increased threat of cyber crime and even cyber terrorism. Another aspect are the natural disasters we constantly witness - floods, earthquakes and now the Icelandic ash cloud; they inevitably affect businesses both in the UK and across the world. The BS25999 Certified BCMS Lead Implementer Masterclass covers all the key steps in using BS25999 best practice for any organisation's business continuity arrangements. I am delighted that previous attendees of our course are now leading their organisations towards implementing successful BCMS and subsequent BS25999 certification. I am confident that, because of this, their organisations will be able to act quickly in the case of unforeseen events."

One delegate described his experience of the course like this: "The course was excellent and filled the gaps in knowledge and context. I would strongly advise that this be attended well before any real start to an implementation project ..."
