About this CourseFailing to acknowledge the possibility of unlikely events is often the reason many organizations are underprepared and ill-equipped when facing a crisis. Yet, if there’s one thing that businesses should take away from the COVID-19 global health crisis, it’s the critical need to have strategies in place for the likelihood of potential risks.

Any professional looking to move into the risk or crisis management space will benefit from an intensive introduction to this subject. Leaders and executives who want to play a more active role in managing risk within their businesses will benefit from improving their understanding of risk and crisis strategies. This course is also applicable to analysts and consultants who currently deal with risk management and want to optimize their skills.
