About the program

About 18 hours · Six sessions · Self-paced video

The RMBOK Advanced Risk Practitioner program works through the whole Risk Management Body of Knowledge, in the book’s own order, at full practitioner depth.

Julian Talbot, the lead author, covers each method in detail: how it works, its variants, the book’s worked examples, its limitations and the pitfalls that catch experienced people.
