The integration of ERM with business continuity planning and decision-making processes will be emphasized to achieve a seamless risk management approach.With a focus on ERM implementation and getting started, the course provides practical guidance for developing an ERM action plan, building a risk management team, and setting measurable ERM goals. Participants will gain insights into measuring ERM success and continuously improving risk management practices.Moreover, emerging trends such as incorporating cybersecurity and Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) factors in ERM will be explored, helping participants adapt their strategies to modern challenges.By the end of this course, participants will be well-versed in ERM best practices, enabling them to navigate uncertainties while identifying and capitalizing on new opportunities.
