Over the past eighteen years, Survive has had three incarnations. Its history has not been continuous as far as the legal entities have been concerned. On two previous occasions, the phoenix has risen from the ashes without most of us knowing that there had been a death and resurrection. Survive! Ltd, Survive Holdings Limited and Global Business Continuity Limited, trading as Survive have been entirely separate companies.

 

The question is, ‘What will be the form of its reincarnation this time?’ Someone, unknown to us, has bought its membership list and its name, but meanwhile the majority of its trainers have decided to launch their courses independently. Most of Survive’s training courses were not owned by Survive at all, but by those who presented them. A number of these have decided to go it alone and market their courses in their own right. You can now buy from the supplier direct. Please see below for details.

 

 

The remainder of Survive's courses are no longer available. However Continuity Shop has compiled a list of equivalent courses, most of which are approved by the Business Continuity Institute. See Below.
