Avoid scrambling during regulator-facing incident reviews

The situation this course is for

Leadership teams consistently face cross-functional delays in pulling together continuity evidence, especially when audit timelines compress and stakeholders demand traceability. The gap isn’t strategy, it’s execution: documented roles, tested escalation paths, and artefacts that pass scrutiny the first time.

Who this is for

Senior resilience, risk, or compliance lead overseeing business continuity programs in high-visibility tech environments facing regulatory attention

Who this is not for

Junior analysts, generic ERM teams without incident response ownership, or consultants without hands-on implementation experience

What you walk away with

  • Produce a fully compliant ISO 22301 Statement of Applicability without external consultants
  • Reduce audit preparation time by mapping controls to existing operational runsheets
  • Lead incident simulation debriefs with concrete improvements, not generic takeaways
  • Confidently own the continuity timeline during real events
  • Shift from reactive evidence collection to proactive programme ownership
