Course Introduction

Effective risk management is crucial for any successful operation, enabling organizations to seize opportunities, minimize threats, and optimize results. Despite its importance, risk management is often approached reactively or, in some cases, neglected altogether.

This Operations Risk Management and Mitigation training course emphasizes a proactive approach to managing both threats and opportunities. Participants will engage with a proven six-step methodology covering risk planning, identification, analysis, and control.

Designed for operations teams and businesses across all sectors where operations are central to their success, this course will help you accurately and efficiently identify, quantify, and mitigate risks that could disrupt or derail your operations. The content is tailored for personnel involved in or responsible for the successful delivery and continuity of operations.

The training is grounded in the latest PMBOK 6th edition and incorporates the principles of ISO 31000:2009, “Risk Management - Principles and Guidelines,” and ISO 31010:2009, “Risk Assessment Techniques.”

  • Learn how to create an effective risk monitoring plan and risk management strategies
  • Use a practical, six-step process to manage operations risks
