Description
Ensure your organisation is prepared for the unexpected. This practical workshop provides a clear, structured understanding of Business Continuity Planning (BCP), Disaster Recovery (DR) and IT Service Continuity Management (ITSCM) and how to integrate all three into a comprehensive recovery capability aligned to IT service management best practice.
Delivered live in our virtual classroom by an expert instructor. This workshop can also be delivered onsite or in a private virtual session tailored to your organisation.
Why BCP, DR and ITSCM matter
Business Continuity Planning is the cornerstone of organisational recoverability, yet it is frequently overlooked or under-resourced until a disruption occurs. When BCP, DR and IT Service Continuity Management are properly aligned and implemented together, they form an all-encompassing recovery toolkit that enables your organisation to respond effectively and recover rapidly from any major incident or disaster.
The question is not whether your organisation will face a disruption, it is whether you will be ready when it does.
About this workshop
This workshop provides an overarching view of how good BCP and DR planning — aligned with IT Service Continuity Management — translates into real-world recoverability. It is practice-aligned and grounded in industry best practice frameworks, covering the essential concepts, implementation guidance and critical success factors your team needs to assess, improve and sustain continuity capability.
Workshop content includes:
Understanding the distinctions and relationships between BCP, DR and ITSCM — and when each applies
Understanding the business value of BCP, DR and ITSCM for operational resilience
How to implement BCP, DR and ITSCM effectively within your organisation

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between BCP, DR and ITSCM?
Business Continuity Planning (BCP) focuses on maintaining critical business operations during and after a disruption, it is organisation-wide. Disaster Recovery (DR) focuses specifically on recovering IT systems and infrastructure after a failure. IT Service Continuity Management (ITSCM) is the ITSM practice that ensures IT services can be recovered within agreed timeframes to support business continuity. All three are complementary and most effective when aligned and managed together, which is the core focus of this workshop.
Is this workshop suitable for non-IT roles?
Yes. While the workshop is grounded in IT service management best practice, BCP and DR are inherently cross-functional disciplines. Participants from risk management, operations, facilities and senior leadership will all find the content relevant to their continuity responsibilities.
Can this workshop be customised for our organisation?
Yes, the onsite and private delivery options can incorporate your organisation's existing BCP and DR documentation, processes and specific risk scenarios to make the content immediately applicable to your context.
