Summary
Available as a one-year master's, as a master's with professional practice (two years), by distance learning or with a fast track option. All decision-making entails uncertainties and the challenges posed by risk have never been more apparent. Adaption to this "new normal" is essential.
Consider:
Seismic ripples from health pandemics will reverberate throughout the foundations of society for years to come
Increasingly volatile climate-related events are unravelling organisational plans in the short and long term
Geopolitical tensions, populist forces, terrorism and escalating trade wars distort the once-calm waters of multinationals
Corporate reputations are precarious and a minor error on social media can induce crisis.
The path to risk resilience is as exciting as it is complex and requires a new generation of skilled risk managers to lead the way.
Join a leading UK provider with over 30 years’ Risk Management teaching experience and benefit from our longstanding links and excellent reputation with industry bodies and professionals while developing the advanced skillset employers need today and in the future.
