Training Overview

Training Overview

AE/SCNS/NCEMA 7000 is the UAE’s national Business Continuity Management (BCM) standard, while ISO 22301 is the globally recognized international standard for BCM. Integrating these two standards enables organizations to align with UAE-specific regulatory requirements and benefit from international best practices, resulting in a robust and comprehensive Business Continuity Management System (BCMS).

This Integrating AE/SCNS/NCEMA 7000 with ISO 22301 for Enhanced Continuity training course provides a practical framework for harmonizing AE/SCNS/NCEMA 7000 with ISO 22301. Participants will learn how to leverage the synergies between these standards to streamline implementation, achieve dual compliance, and enhance organizational resilience. Through detailed discussions, practical exercises, and real-world case studies, attendees will gain the knowledge and skills needed to integrate these standards effectively.
