Friends, You may be interested in  the attached that was circulated within the financial services sector. Kenya Institute of Bankers tell me the course is open to all who enroll. See you there. --------------------------             RE:          BUSINESS CONTINUITY MANAGEMENT {INTRODUCTORY LEVEL} COURSE: 10TH FEBRUARY, 2012 AT THE NAIROBI SAFARI CLUB   Business disruptions can occur either permanently or temporarily at any time due to unpredictable disasters. Such disasters could strike in form of natural disaster (e.g. fire, flood, earthquake, etc) or man-made disaster (e.g. war, strike, riot, civil commotion etc.). Every Bank Management should be prepared by having in place business resumption plans against such occurrences, to ensure continued business operations in the face of disruption. Only businesses that are prepared to face disasters of any kind, in times of crises, are likely to survive.   This one day introductory level Business Continuity Management course will expose participants to existing and emerging practices in BCM for purposes of raising resiliency.  Participants will learn how to identify and define problems, plan, respond and recover when disasters happen.   This course will therefore be of immeasurable benefits to executives and managers responsible for: *  Enterprise Risk Management, *  Technology Planning Deployment & Management, *  Human Resource Management, *  Facilities Planning & Management. *  ICT Operations Personnel responsible for BCP and DRP.  *  Officials concerned with Business Continuity & Crisis Management.  *  Project Managers, *  Public Relations  *  Corporate Communications Managers.   Please note that the Kenya Institute of Bankers is registered with the D.I.T. as an approved provider of training services, and Banks/Financial Institutions should submit their applications in reasonable time for the training.   Please submit your nominations on the attached forms, so as to reach us by 3rd February, 2012.   Yours Sincerely,       S.N.
