Description
Add a skill set with our case study-based audit course.
BCMS Auditor/Lead Auditor (ISO22301) provides the training, tools, and hands-on experience needed
to audit business continuity, disaster, and emergency management programs.
Featuring a case-study-based, hands-on format, you will learn by doing in this unique and highly
effective course. Whether you're a business continuity professional, an internal or external auditor, or a
consultant who assesses continuity and emergency management programs for clients, DRI’s audit
course provides the training, tools, and hands-on experience needed to audit business continuity,
disaster, and emergency management programs.
Using multiple methods of instruction, DRI’s Auditor course for standard ISO 22301 gives students the
training, tools, and hands-on experience needed to master auditing of emergency management and
business continuity plans. Group exercises will help you develop your skills as you audit a hypothetical
company’s program using the standard, audit guide, and presentation content in the course. You'll also
learn how to develop your audit opinion, develop your report, and present your findings to
management.
In addition to the body of knowledge defined by ISO22301, this course also includes two modules on
auditing. The first module identifies auditing standards and guidance in addition to defining the phases
of engagement, engagement planning, performance of the audit, and communicating results. The
second module covers reporting findings and recommendations.
The course materials include a comprehensive audit guide for you to take back to your workplace and
use when preparing for and conducting an audit and when reporting audit findings. The audit guide
identifies who should be interviewed, documents that should be reviewed, as well as surveys that
should be conducted to gather evidence of conformity to the standard. Audit questions are designed to
guide you in determining whether the information you gathered conforms to the standard.
