Enterprise Risk Management Certificate
Modern businesses face a myriad of obstacles and liabilities that could jeopardize a company’s reputation, operations, and livelihood. Enterprise Risk Management provides tools and frameworks to identify, assess, and prepare for organizational risks before they materialize and threaten a company’s operations and objectives. It also helps to uncover positive risks and opportunities, which help advance a company’s vision and growth objectives.
As a pioneer in the Risk and Insurance field, Butler University is focused on advancing leaders to effectively manage the risk and known or unknown liabilities of an organization. Butler’s online Enterprise Risk Management Certificate furthers that mission and is designed to strengthen the professional profile of Risk Managers and prove their know-how to create value for their organization, using nationally and internationally accepted standards and frameworks. Each of the certificate’s five modules takes about 5-10 hours to complete.
