As organizations across West Africa face increasingly complex risks and disruptions, there is a growing need to develop the next generation of resilience professionals.
This interactive roundtable is designed to introduce young professionals, recent graduates, and students to the exciting and evolving fields of resilience and business continuity. Unlike a traditional webinar, this session will foster an open and engaging dialogue where participants can interact directly with experienced resilience practitioners, ask questions, share perspectives, and gain practical insights into the profession.
The discussion will explore the diverse career opportunities within resilience and business continuity, the core competencies and technical skills required to succeed, and the professional certifications and development pathways available to aspiring practitioners. The session will also provide a valuable platform for mentoring and networking, enabling participants to build meaningful connections with professionals from across West Africa while learning from their real-world experiences.
By inspiring young talent and strengthening awareness of resilience as a rewarding career, this roundtable supports the Business Continuity Institute (BCI) West Africa Chapter's commitment to building professional capacity, promoting resilience awareness, and cultivating a new generation of leaders who will help organizations and communities thrive in an increasingly uncertain world.
