Training (BCP)
Developing a robust and realistic continuity plan
Why take this course?
The Business Continuity Plan (BCP) is the foundation that ensures the continuation of critical business activities in the event of a major crisis.
This course allows you to move from theory to action by building a pragmatic continuity plan that can be directly implemented by your business and IT teams.
Aligned with the Ransom-Kick method, it is part of the Arkeion Group ecosystem, consistent with the other building blocks: BIA, DRP, CRP and Arkeionis.
Course structure
The course is organised in three stages:
- Design: transforming the priorities identified in the BIA into continuity requirements.
- Structuring: defining the necessary human, technical and documentary resources.
- Formalisation: producing a comprehensive Plan B including reflex sheets, procedures and degraded modes.
Typical duration: 3 days in person or 6 half-days remotely.

Certification and tools
🎓 An Arkeion-Formation certificate is issued to each participant.
🏅 Organisations can enhance their practices by obtaining certification from Arkeion-Certification, which validates the maturity of their continuity system.
⚙️ The Arkeionis AI agent can be used during the training to generate BCP templates, automate documentation and structure deliverables.
👉 With this BCP training, you move from simple planning to controlled and tested continuity, a guarantee of resilience and anti-fragility.
