This five-day course provides delegates with a thorough understanding of the Management of Risk (M_o_R) methodology. During the course, we introduce the Principles, Approach, Process, and Embedding & Reviewing M_o_R which form the core concepts of M_o_R. We will also explain how M_o_R is important throughout the organisation, from Strategic, Programme, Project, and Operational perspectives.
Throughout the course, our M_o_R experts help delegates understand the benefits of adopting the M_o_R methodology.
Prior to the course, delegates will receive QA's pre-course reading to help them prepare adequately. All relevant course materials are provided, including the core textbook 'Management of Risk: Guidance for Practitioners'. This course prepares learners for both the M_o_R Foundation examination and the M_o_R Practitioner examination, which learners will book independently and take outside of their QA course, using a voucher provided by QA.
