Description

This course contains the use of artificial intelligence
Your company has a continuity plan. It sits in a folder, and nobody has opened it since the day it was written.
When the next outage hits, will anyone know what to do in the first hour?
That is where most continuity managers start. Business continuity was added to a risk, operations or IT role, and the CEO assumes that someone has it covered. You know the processes and you have fixed outages with your own hands, but nobody showed you how to price an hour of downtime, agree RTO and RPO with the business or run an exercise that tests the plan instead of the patience of the people in the room. So the plan stays on paper, IT promises a recovery time that has never been measured, and every question from the board or a client questionnaire is answered with "we have a document."
After this course you run business continuity as a program, not as a file. Every critical process has a cost of downtime in dollars and a recovery time the business signed off. The top risks sit in one register with owners and decisions. Each department has a plan that starts with a first-hour page, IT has a tested runbook for its most critical system, and the first messages to employees, clients and the media are written before they are needed. Critical suppliers answer your questionnaire before the contract is renewed, the plan is tested at a tabletop exercise, and your quarterly report to the board answers "are we ready?" with numbers.
The course is built and taught by Mike Pritula
- Founder of Pritula Academy, where 170,000+ students have trained, and the person in charge of its strategy; #1 HR instructor on Udemy, with 2,000,000+ students on Udemy
- 20 years of leadership in HR at Wargaming, Preply, iDeals, Starlightmedia and Alfa-Bank
- At Alfa-Bank, around 2007, he searched the market for a business continuity and disaster recovery expert and found only four such specialists; the candidate he hired came from Deloitte and built the continuity system in the bank
- At Wargaming he worked with a business continuity plan for evacuating an office for several days and with evacuation drills in a 16-floor office of 2,000 employees, each followed by a debrief by the numbers
First you take the role: a program charter, an executive sponsor and a 90-day plan. Then you measure: a business impact analysis that prices downtime and sets RTO and RPO, and a risk register that shows which disruptions are most likely. Next you build one document per lesson: recovery strategies, the department continuity plan, the IT disaster recovery plan, the crisis communication plan and the supplier continuity check. Finally you test the plan at a tabletop exercise and report to the board with eight metrics and an ISO 22301 gap analysis. Each lesson stands on its own, so if you need your first tabletop exercise next week, you can open lesson nine tonight.
What's included
- Lifetime access to all materials
- Active instructor support in Q&A
- Udemy Certificate of Completion
- A practical assignment for your own company in every lesson
- Ready-to-use templates: a program charter and 90-day plan, a BIA table, a downtime cost calculator, a continuity risk register, a strategy matrix, a department continuity plan, a DR register and runbook, a crisis message bank, a supplier questionnaire, a tabletop exercise kit, a program dashboard and an ISO 22301 gap analysis
- A section with additional courses, tools and resources
Every month with an untested plan is another month in which an outage, a supplier failure or a client questionnaire can arrive before you are ready. The continuity managers who can show the CEO the price of downtime in dollars get the budget and the attention of the board, and the rest keep updating a document nobody reads. Your next disruption is already on its way.
