Workshop Description

Managing risks is recognized as an important element of effective project management.   Properly managing risk enhances your probability of achieving your project goals and ensures a smoother implementation. The risk management process involves identifying potential risks on your projects, assessing the impact of these risk events, establishing risk response strategies, and when required implementing risk responses. Risk must be evaluated at the project initiation and re evaluated at every stage of the project to ensure the risks are properly monitored and controlled.

Participants receive in-depth instruction on risk management principles, methodologies, and procedures, along with effective strategies to monitor and control the risks at every stage of the project. They learn the process of creating realistic risk management plans that ensure efficient use of resources and avoid reactive responses which impact project performance.

The complete risk management process, based on the Project Management Institute (PMI),  is presented with the theory and practical examples of each of these techniques. Workshop exercises are also provided to enhance learning and provide immediate experience to enhance your project management capabilities.
