Why study this course

Often referred to as disaster recovery, IT Service Continuity Management (ITSCM) is an ITIL®-aligned discipline that takes a holistic approach to ensure IT services are healthy and able to support the business when required. ITSCM addresses the gaps in the traditional disaster recovery approach by introducing layers of resilience that provide higher levels of protection. This layering is realised by using technologies that are readily available such as virtualisation and high availability fail-over.

Facilitated by Paul Love, an independent consultant who is industry-recognised for his IT service continuity management knowledge and experience, the event is designed for ITSM professionals either looking to get started with ITSCM or looking to improve their existing effort.

This Masterclass is also available as a two-day private event for up to ten attendees. It includes a pre-course consultation for alignment to business needs. Please contact us for more information and a quote for your team.
