Remember, during the previous Instructor's Briefing (IB) on BCMPedia, it was highlighted that when the participants are completing the templates; namely the risk assessment, business impact analysis, business continuity strategy and plan development, there is a supporting guidance note to help them complete the templates before they attend our course.
These guidance notes are usually used to support Module 2 for completing the respective templates. Note that the names of the notes are similar to the BCM Planning methodology, and there is a slight change in the naming convention for CM, CC and IT DR.
eCampus Links to Guidance Notes
Based on the view on eCampus (as shown below), the top left-hand corner [1] will be the Module of the course. Stroll downward, and you can click on the specific "Session" [2] you teach. Then, look for the header with "Guidance Notes" [3].
This is an example of a guidance note for the RAR module of the CM course. The Risk Analysis and Review or RAR in BL-B-5 Module 2 is changed to Crisis Risk Assessment when displayed in the BL-CM-5 Module 2. However, it is still a risk analysis, except in crisis management, and it identifies threat scenarios.
Guidance Notes
Note that the specific hyperlinks (URL) for the specific course are available on the eCampus. This is an example of the guidance notes for CM module 2.
The Guidance Notes are housed in the BCMPedia portal because all the terms mentioned in the templates can be found and are hyperlinked in BCMPedia.
