EXCELLENCE AND LEADERSHIP LEVEL — proven authority, decision-making and risk governance in a real context

Why this course exists

To enable professionals to integrate risk into governance and decision-making, reducing strategic surprise and strengthening operational and technological resilience.

Many organisations manage risk because they record risks, but remain vulnerable when they need to decide under pressure, justify trade-offs, align risk with strategy, or demonstrate control and accountability to senior management, audit and regulators.

The ISO 31000 ISO 27005 risk management course: Integrated Risk & Resilience Lead Manager exists to transform Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) and information security/cyber risk (ISRM) into an integrated programme that is operational and defensible, linking risk → criteria → decisions → treatment → control → resilience → monitoring and continuous improvement.

What this course enables you to do

Govern

Define governance, responsibilities and decision-making authorities, integrating risk into strategy and operations.

Assess and prioritise

Identify, analyse and assess strategic, operational and technological risks using consistent and comparable criteria.

Treat and accept

Decide on treatment options, accept residual risk with appropriate authority and document defensible evidence.

Evidence

Produce KRIs, executive reporting and decision records aligned with governance, audit and continuous improvement.

Frameworks, standards and best practices addressed throughout the course

ISO 31000 (Risk Management / ERM)

Value for the organisation

  • Integrates strategic, operational and technological risk into a single governance and decision-making model.
  • Reduces reactive decisions and operational “surprise” by clarifying criteria, risk appetite/tolerance and formal acceptance authorities.
  • Improves the consistency of risk assessment and the quality of treatment decisions and residual risk acceptance.
  • Strengthens the link between risk, controls and resilience, increasing capacity to absorb, adapt and recover.
  • Produces defensible evidence (records, metrics and reporting) that is useful for management, audit and accountability.

Introduction

The ISO 31000 ISO 27005 risk management course: Integrated Risk & Resilience Lead Manager integrates ERM and security/cyber risk into an operational and defensible model. It is an advanced and applied integrated risk management course designed for professionals who intend to lead ERM programmes (ISO 31000) and consistently integrate information security and cybersecurity risk (ISO/IEC 27005).

In a context of uncertainty, technological dependence and regulatory pressure, this course prepares participants to act with executive maturity: define governance, establish criteria, conduct assessment, decide on treatment and acceptance, relate risk to controls and resilience, and sustain the programme with monitoring and reporting.

The methodology follows a practical approach, with progressive application and a focus on reusable outputs, supported by study and decision simulations.

This course prepares participants for the Certified Integrated Risk & Resilience personal certification, with progression by levels (Manager / Lead Manager), in accordance with a scheme aligned with ISO/IEC 17024.

Frequently Asked Questions

Objective answers to the most common questions about the ISO 31000 ISO 27005 risk management course: Integrated Risk & Resilience Lead Manager.

What distinguishes this course from training focused only on risk management or only on cybersecurity?
This course was designed to integrate, within a single learning path, the perspectives of Enterprise Risk Management (ERM), information security and cybersecurity risk (ISRM) and organisational resilience. Instead of treating these topics in isolation, it works through the articulation between criteria, decision-making, treatment, control, residual risk, reporting and organisational response capability.
What kind of practical outputs can participants expect throughout the training?
Throughout the training, participants work with an approach focused on reusable outputs, including risk criteria structures, prioritisation rationale, foundations for decision records, framing for residual risk acceptance, monitoring indicators and elements useful for executive reporting and audit.
Is this course suitable for multidisciplinary teams that need to work on risk and resilience together?
Yes. The course is particularly useful where there is a need to align different functions, such as risk, information security, business continuity, compliance, internal control, management and technology, around a common language, coherent criteria and an integrated model for decision-making and evidence.
At what stage of organisational maturity does this course tend to generate more value?
The course generates value both in organisations that are structuring a more formal risk management model and in more mature contexts that need to integrate silos, strengthen the quality of decisions, make risk more defensible before audit and senior management, and connect risk more consistently to operational and technological resilience.
Does this course help improve the quality of executive decision-making on risk?
Yes. One of the course’s core focuses is precisely to strengthen the quality of risk-related decision-making through clearer criteria, better prioritisation, greater consistency in assessment, stronger justification of treatment and acceptance options, and the production of evidence useful for governance, accountability and management oversight.
