(This event is free to ABLE members. There is a fee of £40+booking fee for non-members)
About this event
The Business Network Training on Risk Management is one of the popular sessions in the ABLE training and development programme. This two-hour virtual programme is designed to provide business leaders and their teams with a broad overview of what Risk Management provision is required as outlined by the DfE and ESFA and other professional bodies.
Drawing on guidance from the DfE, ESFA, industry leaders, case studies and peers, the session will help you understand what leaders and their organisations need to focus on and comply within their delivery of risk management.
Through this immersive and interactive programme we will cover:
· Risk Management Requirements as outlined in the Academies Trust Handbook and the Orange Book 2021-22
· Risk management frameworks and practices
· How integrated risk management works
· The mechanism of governance and its critical relationship with risk
This training session blends quantitative research and intelligent risk strategies to broaden participants’ risk management understanding and ability. The diverse programme cohort is tailored to include participants from educational organisations and role functions. It is also designed for mid to senior-level managers looking to expand their knowledge of risk regulation, compliance and practice, in both teaching and business staff positions.
