Disaster Planning Seminar

Our Disaster Planning seminar is 3 hours of instruction ( one session ) aimed at individuals who are familiar with the use of a computer, who run a small (home based) or medium business, and who wish to learn how to ensure that they will be able to continue in business if disaster strikes.

The seminar is given with a view to the recovery of both information and business function, as well as strategies for continuing business during recovery.

Businesses tend to spend large sums of money on insurance policies, but sadly lack the investment in some basic strategies which will protect the viability of the business. It makes no sense to replace assets if those assets cannot be integrated into a recovery of business function.

This seminar is designed to improve the participants understanding of contingency planning and preparation.
