 2012 Award of Excellence
Celebrating 6 Years!
Great news!
Given that some organizations are currently dealing with higher priority issues at year end, DRI CANADA is extending the timeline for the Award of Excellence application to January 20, 2012.
Our Awards of Excellence application is simple to complete. Take the short time required to submit the Award of Excellence nomination so that you can be selected to move to the evaluation stage. The evaluation stage will be conducted next year.
We are told by our previous Award of Excellence Winners that the evaluation stage is very worthwhile in determining your readiness to meet crisis events. It is an exceptional and completely cost free way to illustrate to management your organization's continuity planning strengths and weaknesses.
Take advantage of this opportunity to highlight and be recognized for the Business Continuity planning achievements.
If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact the DRI CANADA Award Administrator by calling 1-888-728-DRIC (3742) or writing to awards@dri.ca.
Sincerely,
Mary Genyk, CBCP - President
