Acertia, in partnership with DRI International, has established DRI UK, a training partner that will run DRI courses in the UK, providing globally-recognized accreditations for Business Continuity professionals.

 

Unlike training run by other organizations, DRI certification supports continuous professional develop­ment, since professionals who earn certifi­cation in business continuity are required to maintain their certification. This involves a variety of methods including attending conferences and meetings, membership in local organization, making presentations, and conducting training sessions. All instructors are DRI-certified and are required to complete a training session with DRI’s Director of Education prior to the course beginning.

 

Each year DRI International hosts an event designed to address the topics certified professionals care about most and provides a first-rate educational experience that informs and inspires. This is a unique opportunity to hear and speak with the leading experts in the industry – real industry leaders from around the globe talking about their actual experiences.
