Introduction Key Learning Outcomes Training Methodology Who Should Attend? Outline

Introduction

Operational success depends on the ability to manage uncertainty proactively rather than reactively. In many organisations, risks are addressed only after disruption occurs, leading to avoidable delays, cost overruns, safety incidents, and performance degradation. Effective operations require disciplined risk planning, early identification, and consistent control throughout the operational lifecycle.

The Operations, Risk Management and Mitigation Course strengthens operational risk capability by providing a clear, structured methodology for managing both threats and opportunities. It focuses on defining operational risk boundaries, identifying and assessing risks, selecting appropriate response strategies, and monitoring risk throughout execution. The emphasis is on practical application within operational environments where continuity, safety, and reliability are critical.

Key focus areas include:

Integrating risk management into operational planning and execution
Identifying risks that impact safety, time, cost, and quality
Applying qualitative and quantitative risk assessment techniques
Implementing and monitoring effective risk response and control

Key Learning Outcomes

At the end of this Operations, Risk Management and Mitigation training course, participants will be able to:

Analyse operational risks using a structured, lifecycle-based approach
Identify risks affecting safety, schedule, cost, quality, and continuity
Apply qualitative and quantitative techniques to evaluate operational risk
Develop practical risk response and mitigation strategies
Monitor and control risks using clear reporting and escalation practices
Strengthen operational resilience through proactive risk management

Training Methodology

This Operations, Risk Management and Mitigation training course combines structured instruction with applied exercises and realistic operational scenarios. Participants work through risk identification, assessment, and response planning activities, supported by simulations that reinforce disciplined risk control and decision-making in operational contexts.
