We live in an unpredictable world where an unforeseen incident or environmental event could disrupt a Further Education (FE) College at any moment. Fire, natural disasters like flooding, pandemics or even a cyber-attack could all result in serious interruption to your organisation.
All FE Colleges should be prepared to respond to an unexpected emergency, disaster or crisis. Having pre-planned strategies in place should help you recover from the effects of such situations in as timely a manner as possible.
A Business Continuity Plan (BCP) helps increase organisational resilience by identifying the priority activities and developing suitable strategies and solutions for continuity following a disruption. It will also assist you by assessing the impacts of potential scenarios that could affect your college and help you to allocate the necessary resources to minimise the disruption.
