This module equips learners with the essential knowledge and practical skills to identify, analyse, and manage risks in project environments.
It covers the full risk management process, including risk identification, assessment, response planning, and ongoing monitoring.
Students will explore both qualitative and quantitative risk analysis techniques, enabling them to evaluate risks accurately and develop effective mitigation strategies. Through a blend of theoretical frameworks and real-world applications, learners gain the confidence to manage uncertainties and contribute to successful project outcomes. Practical case studies further enhance the learning experience by demonstrating how risk management principles are applied across diverse project scenarios.
Mode of Assessment
A mixed-method assessment approach will be utilised for this programme. This will include the use of a group project (30 %) and an assignment (70 %).
Target Audience
This course is intended for those who are aged 21+ involved in project management who want to develop practical skills in identifying, assessing, and mitigating risks, particularly those responsible for ensuring projects are delivered successfully despite uncertainty and potential challenges.
