Determining which business continuity certification is best would first depend on the industry and geographical location. For example, for those that work in emergency management or in leadership of a large facility with a large amount to employees such as a factory or warehouse, then the The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) 1600 would seem to be geared more toward industrial type sectors. The Certificate of the Business Continuity Institute (CBCI) seems to be more of a wider excepted certification outside of the United States such as Europe Asia Africa and the Middle East.
