Course Overview

Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) is a strategic approach that aligns governance structures, risk management processes, and regulatory compliance into a unified framework. By integrating these three pillars, organizations can reduce complexity, avoid silos, and strengthen oversight. Poorly managed GRC leads to duplication, inefficiency, and exposure to regulatory and reputational risks.

This ten-day course from EuroQuest International Training explores international GRC frameworks, enterprise risk integration, compliance monitoring, internal controls, and foresight strategies for anticipating emerging risks. Participants will learn how to design GRC structures that embed accountability, strengthen trust, and ensure sustainable growth.
