Session 10

Title: Disaster Recovery Planning

Session Description:

We know the old adage, if you are prepared it probably won't happen, so let's get started.

Where, when, and how should I start planning?
Who needs to be included in creating the plan?
How can I be sure the plan will work?
What do I need to do to keep the plan current?

All of these questions may sound a little daunting. We will outline a simple process to plan for a variety of events that can cause an interruption in the normal services offered at your university, college, school or classroom.
