2 to 4 blog articles extracted from the chapters of A Manager’s Guide to Audit & Review Your Operational Resilience 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 completing their assignment in the following  1 hour online session.

All Blended Learning ORA-5000 course participants are to attend two 3-hour sessions. The first 3-hour session would require them to participate in 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 audit findings
• Present audit findings (severe 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 could wrap up the auditing of the case study and navigate how to coordinate and manage the closure of an audit report. 

The course will end with sharing and discussing the anticipated challenges of executing and finalising the OR Audit.

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.
