Professional Track
ISO 22301 Auditor
Develop the skills to plan, conduct and evaluate audits against ISO 22301 in real organisational contexts
Overview
The ISO 22301 Auditor Track is designed for professionals who audit Business Continuity Management Systems (BCMS) in different organisational and audit contexts. Rather than approaching audits as a review of documented plans alone, the programme focuses on evaluating preparedness, prioritisation and the organisation’s ability to respond to and recover from disruption.
The track covers the full audit life cycle and enables effective BCMS audits in internal auditing, supplier auditing as well as third-party auditing contexts.
