ISO 22301:2019 Transition Course

Last Updated: 25 07 2025

The ISO 22301:2019 Transition Course targets working professionals who need to upgrade their knowledge from the previous ISO 22301 format to the newly released 2019 version concerning Business Continuity Management Systems or BCMS. This course examines new structures, terms and focuses on leadership and performance.  

Module 1 outlines the historical context of ISO 22301 and the contemporary importance of business continuity in a risk-based world. It showcases how the new clauses will increase organisational resilience and adopt risk-based thinking more explicitly in its day-to-day application.  

Module 2 is a detailed, parallel look at the clauses of ISO 22301 and the strategies for assessing and aligning it with your existing BCMS. It will also help you explore various scenarios through practical case studies, including how to plan the transition without affecting your business operations.  

This course is essential for anyone involved in business continuity, IT disaster recovery, and operational risk. It builds a great bridge to further training, such as the ISO 22301 Lead Auditor Course or associations with security standards (i.e., ISO 27001).  

SSDN Technologies is among the Top Corporate Training Companies in India, striving to make its training as practical and as timely as possible, where training is even relevant for new technologies. Students are encouraged to explore related offerings, such as VMware Disaster Recovery Solutions and AWS-based BCMS architectures.
