Introduction to the course

Wherever there is uncertainty there is risk, and the better we control risk the better we control the outcome. As projects exist in a dynamic environment, all projects are subject to risk, and we therefore need effective project risk management and control systems to manage the uncertainties and optimise the outcomes of our projects.

This KC Academy training course on Project Risk Management & Managing Project Control addresses the specific nature of uncertainty and risks that occur during projects. The training course will provide delegates with the knowledge and skills required to effectively identify project risks, and control projects through minimising uncertainty and maximising efficiency. This, in turn, will improve their ability to deliver projects on time, within budget, and with a clear health & safety record.

This training course will highlight:

  • Key factors in project risk & control management planning
  • The importance of accurate risk identification & analysis
  • How to apply the triple constraint for effective project control
  • The importance of managing & controlling project change
  • How to create effective risk response plans
