Why Study Risk Management?

The field of risk management concerns the identification, classification, prioritisation and mitigation of threats at all levels in an organisational setting.  In business, a ‘risk’ is defined as anything that poses a direct or indirect threat to the performance, prosperity or wellbeing of the organisation or its workforce. From reputational damage to financial loss to legal and political issues, today’s business must contend with an extensive range of internal and external threats.  For the risk manager, the challenge lies in ensuring each and every potential threat is identified, recorded and dealt with. Some eventualities can be avoided entirely, while others are outside the control of the organisation. By making sure they are prepared for each and every possible threat and scenario, risk management personnel safeguard the futures of the businesses they work for.

Brentwood Open Learning College offers an extensive range of risk management programmes, open to candidates worldwide with no entry-requirements to fulfil.  This introductory Level 1 Risk Management Award provides a basic introduction to risk management and mitigation over two engaging modules as follows:

Module 1. Overview of Risk Management

Module one introduces risk management as both a profession and a broader business concept.  The functions, objectives and limitations of risk management are examined, along with the potential benefits of an effective risk management framework, an introduction to the major risk classifications. How to use essential risk management tools and the consequences of poor risk management in business.

Module 2. The Types of Risk

Module two focuses on risk classifications and the extent to which common internal and external risks can adversely affect the modern business.  Candidates are introduced to social risks, legal risks, political risks, economic risks, financial risks, operational risks, market risks, technological risks, environmental risks and other primary risk classifications.
