Edcomm Banker’s Academy Updates Free Business Continuity Tutorial

Edcomm Banker’s Academy has recently updated its free tutorial for business continuity planning.

New York, NY, May 13, 2011 -- Edcomm Banker’s Academy has recently updated its free tutorial for business continuity planning. Currently available for free at www.bankersacademy.com/free_tutorials.php, Overview of Business Continuity Planning has been revised as part of Edcomm Banker’s Academy’s ongoing commitment to providing the most up-to-date and pertinent information to the financial services industry.

Business continuity is an organization’s ability to function after a disastrous event. Whether it is a minor power outage or a more serious event, such as a flood, it is important for a business to immediately attend to any disaster. Failure to do so can lead to massive damage to the business, its employees and its customers. Therefore, it is important for businesses to plan for business continuity by implementing an emergency response and business resumption plan that will cause the least amount of disruption to customer services and business operations.

Overview of Business Continuity Planning, from Edcomm Banker’s Academy, is an interactive, self-paced tutorial that defines business continuity and explains its significance to any organization. The tutorial includes statistics of Business Continuity Plans (BCPs) and how they affect a company's survival, and details the impact that an absent or lacking BCP has on the organization as whole. Additionally, the requirements of a successful BCP are examined, along with annual plan exercises to ensure that the BCP meets the needs of the organization in the event of a disaster or disruption. Extra attention is given to the importance of planning, as well as to each employee's individual role in the BCP process.
