If you are new to Business Continuity and Disaster Recovery, you will want to refer to the best practices in the industry. Be sure to check out the following links:

The Disaster Recovery Institute International (DRII) is the certifying body for the industry. Certifications include the Associate Business Continuity Professional (ABCP), the Certified Business Continuity Professional (CBCP), and the Master Business Continuity Professional (MBCP).

The Business Continuity Institute (BCI) was established in 1994 to enable members to obtain guidance and support from fellow business continuity practitioners. Professional membership of the BCI provides internationally recognized status as this valued certification demonstrates the members’ competence to carry out business continuity management (BCM) to a consistent high standard.

Association of Continuity Professionals (ACP) is a non-profit trade association dedicated to the advancement of business continuity professionals. ACP provides a powerful peer-to-peer networking and learning environment for its members through chapters across the country.

SCPA is a Business Continuity, Disaster Recovery, and Emergency Management information exchange group. We are an independent, non-fee-based organization which seeks to promote cross-sector discussions revolving around the continuity of both business and community in the event of an unplanned event. Although Atlanta, GA-based, we have members from each border state and across Georgia and encourage interested parties from throughout the Southeast to join the group and participate in our quarterly meetings and ad-hoc seminars.
