About this course
A three-day course on formal risk and opportunity management for projects unlikely to run to plan without specific attention. It treats risk and opportunity as related concepts, with the aim of maximising value delivered rather than minimising risk. It covers threat, vulnerability and risk concepts, risk standards including ISO 31000 and ISO/IEC/IEEE 16085 (systems and software lifecycle risk management), a process model applied across the system lifecycle from acquirer, supplier and developer perspectives, and success-criteria analysis.
