Continuity plans often rest on recovery times that nobody has measured and supplier dependencies that live in one manager's memory. When a system outage, power failure or vendor collapse strikes, organisations that can read their own resilience data recover faster and explain their choices to regulators and boards. Over five days you learn to collect and clean business impact analysis data, calculate recovery time and recovery point objectives, and map the people, technology, sites and third parties behind each important business service. Sessions cover key risk indicators, early warning thresholds, incident and near-miss logs, MTTR and availability metrics, and the evidence expected under ISO 22301 and the Basel Committee principles for operational resilience.
Hands-on work in Excel and Power BI builds a resilience dashboard, while scenario analysis and Monte Carlo simulation test whether impact tolerances would hold during severe but plausible disruptions. It suits business continuity managers, operational risk analysts, IT service continuity leads, internal auditors, crisis management coordinators and data analysts supporting resilience teams in banking, telecoms, utilities, health and government. You leave able to turn scattered records into trustworthy measures and reports. Classroom, online and in-house delivery are available, with a CPD-accredited certificate.
Regulators, insurers and boards no longer accept a continuity plan on trust. They want evidence that critical services can stay within defined limits of disruption, and that evidence is built from data: recovery tests, incident records, supplier performance, system availability and the results of business impact analysis. Many organisations hold this information in separate spreadsheets, service desk tools and audit files, so resilience reporting becomes slow, inconsistent and hard to defend.
The Data and Analytics for Business Continuity & Operational Resilience Training Course shows participants how to bring those sources together and use them for decisions. Day one sets out the measures that matter and the data model behind them. Participants then structure BIA results and dependency maps, design key risk indicators with thresholds and escalation rules, and build a dashboard that links each critical service to its people, technology, facilities and suppliers. Day four applies scenario analysis, stress testing and basic simulation to impact tolerances, and the final day turns incident and exercise results into lessons, trend analysis and board-level reporting aligned with ISO 22301 and ISO 22316.
Teaching is workshop-based. Participants work on a sample organisation's continuity data in Excel and Power BI, clean and reconcile it, and present findings to peers acting as a risk committee. Each person leaves with a draft indicator set and a reporting template they can adapt for their own organisation.
On completing the programme, participants will be able to:
By the final session, each participant will have:
Learning is applied to data from the first morning. The programme uses:
Day 1: Resilience Measures and the Data Behind Them
Day 2: Business Impact Analysis Data and Dependency Mapping
Day 3: Key Risk Indicators and Resilience Dashboards
Day 4: Scenario Analysis, Stress Testing and Simulation
Day 5: Incident Analytics, Exercise Evidence and Reporting
Participants typically work where continuity planning meets risk and data, for example:
A CPD-accredited Certificate of Completion issued by Vision Reach Global Consultancy is awarded to participants who attend the full five days and complete the data labs and scenario exercises.
The dashboard, indicator set and board report produced during the course provide practical evidence of the skills gained.

By the end of the Data and Analytics for Business Continuity & Operational Resilience programme, you'll be able to define the data, metrics and sources needed to evidence continuity and resilience performance, structure business impact analysis results to set and test rto, rpo and maximum tolerable period of disruption, map dependencies between important business services, systems, sites, staff and suppliers, and design key risk indicators with thresholds, owners and escalation triggers. The full breakdown of topics is covered session by session in the Course Outline tab above.
Participants typically work where continuity planning meets risk and data, for example: Business continuity and resilience managers, Operational risk managers and analysts, IT service continuity and disaster recovery leads, Crisis and incident management coordinators, Internal auditors reviewing continuity arrangements, Data analysts and BI developers supporting risk teams, Third-party and vendor risk officers, Compliance officers in banks, insurers and payment providers, and Resilience leads in utilities, telecoms, health and public agencies.
