DEM 557 - Continuity of Operations in Public and Private Sectors

This course examines the implications of crises, emergencies, and disasters on public and private organizations. In particular, this course considers how an organization can prepare for, mitigate, respond to, and recover from disasters through appropriate continuity of operations planning (COOP) and business continuity planning (BCP), so that the organization can continue to provide essential services to its stakeholders. Case studies will be utilized to demonstrate underlying theory and best practices related to COOP and BCP.
