Pre-requisite

Frequently asked, there is no pre-requisite to attend this advanced-level course, and you do not need to attend the DRP-300 course before this DRP-5000 course.  This is the only difference:

• Professionals with more than three years of experience: If you completed the course and passed the certification examination, participants with verifiable three years or more of DR-related experience can proceed to apply for the expert-level certification. 
• Professionals with more than one year but less than three years of experience: You can proceed to apply for the specialist-level certification. Do note that when you have achieved three or more years of DR-related expertise, you do not need to sit for any course or examination to apply for the expert-level certification.
• Professionals with less than one year of experience: You will be awarded the DRCP certification upon completing your qualifying examination.

How is the Course Structured?

Participants enjoy a structured and thorough IT Disaster Recovery (DRP) system understanding to implement and maintain their DR plans. The course takes its cue from the globally recognized 7 BCM Body of Knowledge or BCM BOK implementation methodology.

Essential strategies for developing business continuity (including disaster recovery) will be shared. Design and implementation of DR plans would also be facilitated in a hands-on 1-day workshop (during the second day of the course). Tips and best practices for preparing and conducting awareness and training programs are also part of the curriculum. 

It is helpful to highlight that the DRP-5000 IT Disaster Recovery Expert Implementer is the DRP-300 IT Disaster Recovery Implementer course combined with the DRP-400 IT Disaster Recovery Manager course.

Though this course is aligned with the IT Disaster Recovery standard, it is always helpful to know that you are applying good international practices. 

For those participants whose organization is regulated, this course will allow you to focus on implementing a practical DR project and, subsequently, establishing it as a DR program.
