What it is

What is Business Continuity Management?

Business Continuity Management (BCM) is how we prepare for incidents that could disrupt the college, respond quickly when they happen, and get back to normal as soon as possible.", "It matters because it protects your learning, your safety and your personal data – and means you will always know where to find up-to-date information.
