The Certificate in Risk Governance^® is awarded to those who have completed The Board Members' Course on Risk^® - an intensive 17-course education program and evaluation. The curriculum is designed for current and aspiring board members who seek to advance the governance of risk-taking at their organizations and those who interact with boards. Taught by some of the world's leading figures in risk governance, the program features lessons by nearly 50 board members, C-level executives, and well-known authors from five continents. No course on risk for board members as robust as this - depth, practicality, and global expertise - exists anywhere else.

“In our roles as CEOs and directors, we frequently encounter corporate risks, empower or are empowered to take risks, and manage the aspects of the business that are affected by various risks,” said Ms. Kitapci. “This program successfully provides theoretical and practical guidance to recognise better, evaluate, and manage risk in all dimensions. It is done with renowned subject matter experts and very relevant use cases. Highly recommended if you strive to better contribute to boards as a director equipped with a very valuable risk knowledge and a ready-to-be-used tool set,” she continued.

The fundamental Duty of Care for directors around risk is to ensure that our organizations take risks well in pursuit of our goals and ambitions. This course furthers the fulfillment of that duty.
