When a core system fails, a supplier collapses or a building becomes inaccessible, regulators and boards ask whether the organisation can keep delivering critical services within tolerable limits. Five days equip risk, compliance and continuity leaders to write the policies, governance and evidence that answer that question. You examine ISO 22301, ISO 22313 and ISO 31000, supervisory expectations for banks, insurers and public bodies, and how resilience differs from traditional disaster recovery.
The programme works through business impact analysis, identification of important business services, impact tolerances, mapping of people, process, technology and facilities, and scenario testing under severe but plausible conditions. Further sessions address outsourcing and third-party concentration, cyber and ICT resilience, crisis management and communication, regulatory reporting, and internal audit of continuity arrangements. Heads of risk, compliance officers, business continuity managers, operations and IT directors, internal auditors and public sector planners will find it relevant. Afterwards you can draft a continuity policy, define tolerances for critical services and present a resilience assurance report to a board or regulator. Delivery is classroom, online or in-house, and the certificate is CPD-accredited.
Operational disruption is now treated by supervisors, investors and the public as a governance failure rather than bad luck. Cyber incidents, power and connectivity outages, pandemics, extreme weather and supplier failure can stop critical services, and organisations are increasingly asked to demonstrate, not just assert, that they can withstand and recover from them.
The Policy and Regulatory Frameworks for Business Continuity & Operational Resilience Training Course gives senior practitioners the framework to meet that expectation. It begins with the policy landscape, comparing international standards and regulatory approaches, and clarifying the shift from recovery plans to outcome-based resilience. Participants then learn how to identify critical services, set impact tolerances, map dependencies and design testing that exposes real weaknesses. Sessions on third-party and ICT risk, crisis governance and reporting show how responsibilities are allocated from board to front line and how evidence is kept for supervisors and auditors.
The course is delivered through policy drafting workshops, scenario exercises and review of sample documents. Participants build a policy framework, a service mapping and a testing plan during the week and finish with a board-level assurance paper. Prior exposure to risk, compliance, operations or IT management is expected.
On completion, participants will be able to:
