Lesson 1: Crisis Management Concepts
This is your chance to dive deep into crisis management planning in Lesson 1 of the CM-200 e-learning module.
This course is specifically designed for senior management and professionals (refer to Who Should Attend? below) who want to understand how to prepare their organisation for any unforeseen event.
It is a good choice for senior management and professionals (and even beginners) who need a grounding in crisis management concepts and would like a broad introduction to crisis management (CM) as an organisational discipline.
The need for CM is first established, followed by an overview of the CM planning methodology. Each phase of the CM planning methodology is explained together with the de facto standard for CM, ISO 22361.
Key terminologies are defined, and examples of crisis situations are provided to reinforce understanding.
At the end of the module, participants would be able to:
What will you learn?
- Understand the basic concepts of Crisis Management
- Align CM initiatives to Top Management’s goals
- Identify CM's benefits and critical success factors – Understand the main clauses in ISO 22361 Standards.
- Understand the difference between crisis, crisis management, crisis plan and crisis management planning.
Flexible Learning at Your Pace

- Take detailed notes: Use the built-in electronic notepad to capture key takeaways.
- Test your knowledge: A short quiz at the end will assess your understanding of the material.
