Click to learn more about the course overview of the following two WSQ courses (which you have completed) and the schedule for the year.

In-house Training

As Singapore is opening to 75% of staff members coming back to work due to COVID-19, and as your organization is embarking on a BCM journey or reviewing and updating your existing BCM program, you may want to consider organizing this WSQ program within your organization for both competency building and updating of your content.

Our instructors are not only ACTA-qualified or HRD Corp Accredited Trainers but also have a minimum of 5 to 15 years of BCM implementation experience. This allows you to deploy your templates to be completed as part of the class assignment.

Bridging Over to Certification Program

Participants who complete all three parts of the competency-based WSQ BCM series (with Statement of Attainment) may transfer to the BCM Institute's professional program. It is important to note that this bridging program is not part of the SSG program or requirement; it is an independent choice by the participant.

The participant can approach the institute to sit for the Business Continuity Certified Specialist (BCCS) certification qualifying examination.  This will enable you to achieve the internationally recognized Business Continuity Certified Specialist (BCCS) accreditation once you have passed the Qualifying BCCS exams.

There will be an SGD 200 Qualifying BCCS examination fee.

BCM Certification

 BC Certified Specialist (BCCS) certification is awarded to participants who complete the three-part series, pass the Qualifying BCCS examination, send in an application detailing at least one year of BC experience, pay the application processing fee of SGD 75, and satisfy and meet the experience requirements of the independent certification body.
