Project Risk Management

Delivering projects “on-time, on-budget and on-scope” is the responsibility of project managers regardless of project size, physical team location, procurement contract types or any other project variable. Managing project risk is a foundational skill every project manager must have to be successful.

The Project Risk Management course combines a comprehensive review of risk management concepts, methods, tools and techniques with hands-on, practical learning activities to ensure participants finish with skills which can be applied immediately on the job, whether managing projects in business, government or non-profit environments. Specifically targeting and improving the level of risk management within a project will increase the value of all other project management efforts.

Upon completion of the workshop, students will be able to:

• List the six processes for risk management
• Identify critical success factors for risk management
• Appropriately apply tools and techniques for risk management
• Perform qualitative and quantitative techniques to prioritize risks
• Identify and address barriers to a successful risk management process
• Prioritize risk based on probability and impact
• Describe the use of contingency reserve as it relates to time and cost
• Apply risk response strategies to address threats or opportunities

All content delivered in the Project Risk Management course is aligned with the Project Management Institute’s (PMI)® Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK^® Guide).
