Lead Disaster Recovery Manager Course Overview:

Disastrous events, which can result from natural, human, or technological hazards, have a significant impact on an organization’s ability to achieve its objectives. In addition, many organizations face threats to their operations if they cannot adequately respond to or recover from a disaster. Hence, organizations should prioritize developing capacities to effectively prevent, anticipate, manage, and recover from disasters through well-structured and tested disaster recovery plans (DRP).

The PECB Certified Lead Disaster Recovery Manager training course offers an approach to manage a disaster recovery planning project and develop and implement an information and communications technology (ICT) disaster recovery plan. It equips participants with the necessary knowledge and skills to analyze the incident response plan, emergency plan, and crisis management plan, and conduct disaster recovery testing and performance measurements. This training introduces disaster recovery best practices and educates participants on conducting risk assessments and business impact analyses (BIA) for disaster recovery purposes.

Upon completing the course, attendees are eligible to apply for the exam.
