Risk Management, PRMIA

This intensive program, led by faculty of one of the world’s top business schools, provides delegates with a broad and solid foundation of knowledge that will prepare them to effectively practice risk management. “Risk education has taken a center stage recently, given the current credit-crunch problems in the financial markets. These problems in large part have resulted from the improper use of risk-related tools and instruments for risk taking instead of risk management,” says Robert Savickas, Ph.D., Associate Professor, George Washington University. “To help increase the awareness of the correct applications of risk-management techniques, PRMIA Institute and GWSB have partnered to exploit the expertise of our faculty and leading Washington, DC area risk professionals to provide such education.”

PRMIA is also pleased to announce that it is again partnering with Columbia Business School to offer the Professional Risk Management course that was first held during spring 2007. This course will be held on Wednesday evenings, January 9 - May 28, from 6:30 - 9:30 p.m. at the Midtown Executive Club in New York.

"The expansion of our Complete Course program to Washington, DC is an exciting development for PRMIA members in that area. Our partnerships with Columbia Business School and the Business School of The George Washington University reflect the commitment that the PRMIA Institute has to setting a higher standard in risk education, said David R. Koenig, President of the PRMIA Institute and past Chair, Board of Directors, PRMIA.
