What is the course about?

The NEBOSH IIRSM Certificate in Managing Risk is a joint NEBOSH and IIRSM risk management qualification that helps managers, leaders and professionals understand how to identify, assess and manage organisational risks more effectively. It focuses on practical, real‑world risk management rather than just health and safety, so you learn how to protect people, operations, finances, reputation and strategy across the whole organisation.

This risk management course helps organisations to:

  • Improve decision‑making by embedding a structured, consistent approach to managing risk

  • Understand how different types of organisational risk are connected, from safety and quality to finance, projects and reputation

  • Strengthen governance, assurance and compliance by aligning with recognised risk management principles and frameworks

  • Build a more resilient organisation that can anticipate threats, seize opportunities and respond confidently to change

The NEBOSH IIRSM Certificate in Managing Risk is assessed by a short online exam based on realistic organisational scenarios to confirm you can identify, evaluate and manage risks in your own workplace.
