Business Continuity Institute
- Business Continuity Institute
The Business Continuity Institute (BCI) was established in 1994 to enable individual members to obtain guidance and support from fellow business continuity practitioners. The BCI currently has over 4000 members in 85+ countries.
Professional membership of the BCI provides internationally recognised status as this valued certification demonstrates the members’ competence to carry out business continuity management (BCM) to a consistent high standard.
In order to apply for full membership of the Institute it is necessary to first obtain a 'Pass with Merit' of the Certificate of the Business Continuity Institute. Following the introduction of the BCI Certificate in 2007, a non-membership credential was launched in April 2008 – CBCI. Holders of the CBCI have achieved success in the BCI Certificate demonstrating a through knowledge and understanding of the BCI’s Good Practice Guidelines. Holders of the CBCI may proceed to professional membership of the BCI if they can also prove practical experience of BCM to supplement their knowledge and understanding.
2007 also saw the launch of the BCI Partnership enabling organisations to work more closely with the Business Continuity Institute to deliver the overall BCI mission of:
"Promoting the art and science of business continuity management worldwide"
The wider role of the BCI and the BCI Partnership is to promote the highest standards of professional competence and commercial ethics in the provision and maintenance of business continuity planning and services.
The BCI is the world’s most eminent BCM institute and the name is instantly recognised as standing for good practice and professionalism.
