Introduction
This project risk management and compliance seminar will emphasize awareness of project risk management to minimize project cost/schedule overruns and improve project execution.
Project management is all about managing risks, seizing opportunities, minimizing threats, and optimizing results. However, risk management is often treated as a reactive process, or worse, not done at all.
In this project risk management and compliance certification course, you’ll work through the proactive approach to both sides of risk: threats and opportunities. The approach is based on a clear understanding of both qualitative and quantitative approaches to risk management.
Understanding Compliance Risks within Project Risk Management
Compliance risks are a category that demands keen attention in project risk management. Compliance project management is a critical aspect that aligns project objectives with regulatory and legal requirements, ensuring that projects adhere to necessary standards and avoid legal repercussions.
Understanding the compliance risks and integrating compliance from the early stages of project planning to the monitoring and control phases mitigates the potential for non-compliance and associated costs. By incorporating compliance risk analysis and management strategies, project professionals can guarantee that their projects meet both the execution and regulatory standards, safeguarding their companies from legal penalties and reputational harm.
Participants in this project risk management and compliance certification course will explore the intersection of project risk management and compliance, learning project risk management techniques and tools designed to recognize, evaluate, and manage compliance risks effectively.
