Risk Management Beyond Compliance Training

This training is designed to help participants implement and manage high-level risk management processes within their organisation.

About

In the complex and safety-sensitive environment of the rail sector, maintaining safety and fulfilling regulatory requirements is both important and challenging. A focus on only legal requirements may mean the full advantages of pro-active risk management do not materialize. That’s why this training goes beyond regulatory compliance, empowering you to manage risk proactively, prioritising safety issues, and implementing effective mitigation and monitoring strategies. 

Through theoretical explanations and dialogue based on practical examples, you will be equipped with a set of skills to control risk effectively and develop risk mitigation strategies.
