Effective Advanced Risk Management Techniques
This course on advanced risk management is specifically designed for project managers looking to learn advanced risk management skills. This course will start with a brief review of the risk management process. Quantitative risk identification and analysis tools and techniques will then be presented, including Fishbone Diagrams, Expected Monetary Value and Monte Carlo probability simulation. Application of risk management to project budgets and schedules will be described using specific examples. This course will be highly interactive, with exercises and sample problems to allow attendees to practice the tools and techniques presented.
WHO SHOULD ATTEND
This course is intended for people who are leading or actively participating on project teams where advanced risk management techniques are needed to ensure project success. Attendees should have some basic knowledge of and experience in applying basic risk management techniques to projects.
