Course Overview

In today’s complex global environment, risks arise from multiple domains—financial, operational, digital, regulatory, reputational, and geopolitical. Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) provides a holistic framework that integrates risk considerations into decision-making and strategy. Organizations with strong ERM capabilities can turn risks into opportunities, ensuring agility, resilience, and competitive advantage.

This ten-day course from EuroQuest International Training explores ERM frameworks (ISO 31000, COSO ERM), risk assessment methodologies, governance structures, compliance integration, crisis resilience, and foresight-driven risk anticipation. Participants will learn to embed risk management into organizational culture and align ERM with strategy and performance.
