To sign up or not?
I don’t consider my self a BCM professional. I’m mereley an academic who has a genuine interest in the subject. The membership fees, nonetheless, are quite reasonable, starting at $140 for affiliate membership without certification. Regardless of membership, there is still a plethora of information on the website, among which the Continuity magazine, containing articles and papers on current issues in business continuity management.
