    Education

    The big idea for mentorship is to give fellows (we like to call students ‘fellows’ at UnCollege) an opportunity to hear from real people what it’s like in the real world. Mostly we want them to be connected to reality and begin to understand the industry, what kinds of jobs are out there, and how people got to those jobs. We also want them to start feeling connected to their local community.

    I also help mentors to get connected with other mentors, new fellows and past graduates. As…

    Risk Management is a corner stone of successful organisations. Departments and personnel dedicated to practising risk management exist in the worlds most prominent organisations.

    Governance Risk Compliance Security International (GRCSI) is an international organisation of professionals whose goals are to promote best practices in governance, risk management, compliance and security though education, certification, and accreditation. GRCSI was founded in early 2009 by professionals and practitioners across the globe that identified the need for an authoritative body in the realm of risk management. GRCSI has a board of directors and advisers comprised of industry professionals that are heavily immersed in risk management, a certification board that manages the certification program, an education board that manages conferences, courses and seminars, and a large pool of volunteers that have dedicated countless hours to the success of the organisation.

    The need for a reliable method to assure the knowledge and expertise of risk management personnel has been growing. The Certified Risk Management Professional (CRMP) certification is an indispensable and unmatched method for a risk management professional to demonstrate their qualifications. The CRMP program is for risk managers who have the knowledge, skill, and experience that meet the demanding need for risk based decision making processes. For risk managers with extensive experience in financial, information, or operations risk management, three additional concentration certifications are also available. A fourth concentration in environmental risk management will be available later this year.
