Doing a risk assessment with common risks
This taster-level course demonstrates how to assess risks.
Course Content
This is an introductory level course
Most organisations understand why managing risk is important, but have less expertise on how to do it. Many Trustees don’t realise that it is an essential part of their role. This short taster session will break down the stages of doing a risk assessment through a worked example. It will cover:
- Identifying high risk problems
- Understanding the consequences of not dealing with the issue
- Working out what to do about it
- Making a risk mitigation plan – a template
- Next steps
This course will be useful for Trustees and anyone else who is just starting to think about managing risk at their organisation.
As well as the presentation, you can also download the audio version of the talk and the slides as a pdf document.
Feedback survey Please note that there is a short feedback survey included with this course and we would appreciate your thoughts.
