Module 4: Web Training and Discussion Workshop

To complete Module 4 of the BCM-8530 Blended Learning (BL-A-5) course, participants are required to attend
two 3-hour sessions. 

The participants are required to review and audit the BCMS requirements of a business continuity program based on a case study organization or a live BCMS portal.

In summary, participants should be able to:

• Determine non-conformities of BCMS requirements based on ISO22301
• Write non-conformity audit reports
• Know the areas for follow-up and corrective actions after the audit

[M4-S1] Audit Review and Reporting

• Present Final Audit Report
• Conduct Exit or Closing Meeting

Pre-readings assigned are 2 to 4 blog articles extracted from the chapters of A Manager’s Guide to Auditing & Reviewing Your Business Continuity Management Program.

Participants are recommended to complete them before the session as it serves as  'bite-sized' background information, allowing participants to familiarize themselves with the concepts to be discussed.  It would also assist participants in the completion of their assignment in the following  1 hour online session.

All participants of the Blended Learning BCM-5000 course are to attend two 3-hour sessions. The first 3-hour session would need them to be part of a facilitated online training session. Facilitated by an industry practitioner and armed with the pre-reading knowledge, this session would need participants to focus on the detailed aspect of audit review and reporting:

• Write Non-conformities
• Present Non-conformities (serious findings resulting in non-compliance)
• Write and issue the final audit report
• Present final audit report
• Conduct exit or closing meeting

This would be followed by another 3-hour session on a different day where participants would be able to discuss another case study and navigate how to coordinate and manage the closure of an audit report.

Both sessions are compulsory and run at the pre-determined online schedule. There would not be a repeat or substitute session for anyone who missed it.
