Risk Management Workshop

Risk Management - Approach and Methodology for Effective Business Operations

Managing risks is a key element of the effective organization. To remain competitive, the management cannot afford to set up contingencies or control measures for every conceivable risk.

Rather, they must assess each risk and develop a response proportionate to the risk. This course introduces learners to widely accepted risk assessment, management, and control practices using effective tools and techniques. This course also gives an insight into the legal implications if risks are not managed effectively. This programme caters for any business operations that wishes to engage effective risk management practices.
