Study plan
Learning Path: From PMBOK Process Groups to Fire-Service BIA and Risk Response
Create a 4-6 lesson learning path that takes a student from PMBOK process-group foundations to applying the fire-service qualitative BIA and response/risk strategies in the Business Continuity and Project Management material.

PMBOK Foundations: Project Life Cycle and the Five Process Groups
Identify the five PMBOK process groups and explain how project life cycle knowledge helps organize work from idea through completion, including key questions about goals, team members, deliverables, and performance monitoring.
- 2 Process-Group Recommendations for Initiating and Planning Work Describe the recommended activities in initiation and planning, including stakeholder identification, business value and feasibility, scope, deliverables, budget, resources, risks, project management plans, requirements collection, WBS creation, scheduling, cost planning, quality planning, and resource planning.
- 3 Executing, Monitoring, Controlling, and Closing a Project Summarize the recommendations for execution, monitoring and controlling, and closure, including progress reporting, regular meetings, issue management, performance reporting, resource adjustments, alignment to finances and timelines, and product release or project closeout due to success or failure.
- 4 Mission-Critical Fire Safety and Qualitative Business Impact Analysis Explain why fire safety is a mission-critical activity in the fire brigade context and apply the qualitative BIA approach using hazard presence/absence and exposure levels 1 to 3 to characterize potential impacts on property, people, injuries, and deaths.
- 5 Applying Fire-Service Risk Response and Continuity Strategies Use the source’s fire-service examples to connect qualitative BIA results to response and continuity strategies, including moderate, serious, and maximum structure fire responses, deployment levels, arrival-time performance objectives, escalation control goals, the BIA methodology for preparedness, and schedule development inputs such as WBS, activity lists, duration estimates, and resource requirements.
