Vocal, a market leading provider of mission critical business communication solutions to over 2000 businesses worldwide; from Business Continuity and Emergency Planning applications through to corporate messaging systems, has joined the Business Continuity Institute Partnership as a Bronze Industry Partner.
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 4800+ 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.
The BCI Partnership was launched in 2007 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 its name is instantly recognised as standing for good practice and professionalism.
Ben Howard, Marketing Manager for Vocal commented “A large number of Vocal’s clients are members of the BCI and we are often involved in events organised by the BCI London Forum. The aims of the BCI Partnership are to raise the profile of business continuity management as a discipline and to promote corporate excellence in the delivery of BCM. These aims tie in with those of Vocal so by becoming an Industry Partner we will be able to work closely with the BCI to promote knowledge and understanding of Business Continuity Management.”
