Subject: Online course on disaster planning
Developing a Disaster Plan (Live Online Training) SOLINET Three-part Centra Session meeting 10-12pm Wednesdays, with two weeks in between each session: January 25, 2006, February 8, 2006, and February 22, 2006 Disaster planning requires the support and commitment of staff from many departments, including facilities and fiscal affairs. Plan preparation is more successful and effective when undertaken by a committee with staff representatives from across the institution. This web-based class is designed to support the work of an institution's disaster planning committee. Homework assignments will require input and support from a variety of staff members. Taught in 3 two-hour sessions over the course of six weeks, it guides participants through the development of a written disaster plan. The modules cover: establishment of a planning structure, information gathering, including risk assessment and resource list development, setting recovery priorities, an overview of recovery procedures, plan development, and working with disaster recovery vendors. Cost is $155, SOLINET members, $225 for non-members; early bird discounts and late fees apply.
