PRM Exam Volume Increases By 40% Through Third Quarter of 2006

With candidates from nearly 90 countries pursuing the PRM designation, we're pleased to report that exam testing volume has increased by 40% in the first nine months of 2006 verus 2005.

Highly successful training programs run by university faculty and others have helped to stimulate further interest in the program. In addition, the global recognition of the PRM's standing as the higher standard in risk certification grows.

Said one Wall Street senior executive "[I] recently looked at, for one of the Risk Areas, the PRM vs. [another risk certification] and came to the conclusion that the PRM was better for the following reasons:

Less Costly
More Quantitative
Affiliated with Top Academics
Better Manual
More Flexible
Four Exams will lead to better understanding and learning as opposed to one exam”
