IT Disaster Recovery Program (IT DRP)

The IT Disaster Recovery Program (IT DRP) is one of  5 programmes available at BCM Institute.

How Does The Class Conduct?

BCM Institute's learning programme consists of e-learning, self-study and assignments, and scheduled workshops where you can interact with your facilitators and fellow participants.

The course is currently available in either the 2 Module DRP-300 Blended Learning Course or the 4 Module DRP-5000 Blended Learning Course.

While the IT DR Implementer (DRP-300) course allows you to get an internationally certified Disaster Recovery Certified Specialist (DRCS), the IT DR Expert Implementer (DRP-5000) course allows you to upgrade to the more prestigious Disaster Recovery Certified Expert (DRCE). Both courses require the participant to sit for a qualifying examination at the end of the session, pass the exam and show proof of at least one year (for DRCS certification), or three years of IT DRP experience (for DRCE certification).
