Programme overview

The operational risk series enables participants to focus on the most current and topical issues of Operational Risk management, aiding risk professionals to adjust their practices to remain at the forefront of industry developments and regulatory expectations.

There are 7 workshops in the series, and they have been carefully selected to offer a range of topics that are high on the regulatory agenda. Workshops target a wide audience within the firm and follow the philosophy of learning for performance, containing practical exercises, revision clinic and a reflection of what you can do to apply the learning in practice

Workshops can be taken individually or collectively as part of the series and all include a working lunch where you have the opportunity to network with fellow attendees. 

You can send different colleagues from your organisation to different sessions and this can all be done through one booking (on one invoice). We advise that no more than 3 attendees per firm per series to maximise attendees’ experience.

Working lunch included – that includes networking, and a chance to ask the trainer your specific questions about the topic.  

This workshop series will be offered in a hybrid format, allowing participants to attend either in person or online. After you register, a member of the team will contact you to confirm your preferred mode of attendance. Please be aware that changes to your chosen method of participation may incur an administrative fee, except in cases of extenuating circumstances.
