Introduction:

The unique challenges of IT projects make it mandatory for an IT project manager to be a skilled risk manager. Risk will always exist in IT projects given the need to deal with challenging requirements and expectations, complex and ever-changing technologies and business needs, and aggressive schedules and budgets to support business success. However, it is not inevitable that risk management will be an impossible task that will result in your being viewed as reactive, or worse, unresponsive.

In IT Risk Management, you’ll learn to look at risk management as a way to seize opportunities, minimize threats, and achieve optimum results. You’ll work through the proactive approach to threat and opportunity based on a clear understanding of the powerful nature of both qualitative and quantitative approaches to risk management. Using effective tools, including a highly regarded risk assessment model, you’ll learn how to evaluate and respond to risk at the project and task levels. You’ll apply these tools from the course material to analyze and classify risks, determine how to establish an acceptable level of risk, and develop a practical risk response plan
