Bluetide Puerto Rico and Caribbean Climate-Smart Accelerator BCCP

As a direct result of the MOU signed by Bluetide PR, Inc. (BTPR), and the Caribbean Climate-Smart Accelerator at the Bluetide Caribbean Summit 2021, the Business Continuity and Coastal Planning training program kicked off on March 28th, 2022. Twenty-five professionals representing 24 organizations from the Caribbean Climate-Smart Accelerator’s 27-country network attended the 30-hour training program. Twenty-one participants completed the program and the course examination to earn a certificate of completion from BTPR and the Caribbean Climate-Smart Accelerator.

The training, conducted by resilience and global business continuity experts from DRI International, provided tools and walked participants through the process of risk analysis, operational analysis, and strategic planning before, during, and after a disaster event. Participants gave the training high marks in their post-event evaluations and highlighted the value of networking to exchange experiences and ideas. The training was an early success in BTPR’s work to position Puerto Rico as a key contributor in transferring technical knowledge and skills within the U.S. Caribbean and beyond.
