Based on the course [BCM-5000] that you have just enquired about specifically for the SkillsFuture funding, what are the additional questions you may ask?

Why Am I only Awarded the BCCP certification after completing the BCM-5000 course and passing the BCCE examination?

One of the two conditions for the claim of the SkillsFuture Non-WSQ funding to take place is to be awarded the Business Continuity Certified Planner (BCCP) certification. 

Hence, you would get the Business Continuity Certified Planner or BCCP certification once you pass the BCCE Qualifying Examination that is part of the course.

The other condition is to successfully completion of the BCCE exam. To start the processing, your SkillsFuture Non-WSQ claim by the institute immediately from SkillsFuture Singapore (SSG) is subject to these conditions.

As you have successfully completed expert-level training and have passed the exam, you can apply for your higher certification, such as BCCS and BCCE, and you will need to apply for the desired certification, which is based on your business continuity management experience.

What BCM Certification Can I Attain?

Upon completion of the ISO22301 BCM Expert Implementer course or course code BCM-5000 and the successful passing of the BCM Institute's professional examination (BCCE), you will allow applying for the following certification, they are:
