Interactive risk management training for all experience levels
In this “information Age” organisations are dependent on Information Technology (IT). Advances in IT have enabled traditional businesses to deliver services in new ways, and completely new types of businesses to appear. So, while IT is a fundamental enabler of business in the 21st century, the accompanying opportunities and risks require managing.
This course will equip you with an understanding of both IT-enabled opportunity and risk, and help you guide your organisation toward optimising IT risks.
