    The business resilience course provides a good insight as to how organizations can continue to make progress and excel during hard times like Covid-19. The various implementation strategies make it easy to understand how the framework can be implemented within an organization with existing processes and how the frameworks and domains can be adapted to suit individual organizational needs.

    If this is not available, or your condition was diagnosed a long time ago, then any statement from an employer, line manager or Occupation Health advisor will be sufficient.  

    If no recommendations regarding the length of time to be added to the exam is evident in the documents supplied, then we apply 25% additional time to the exam.
