M_o_R Foundation + certification (EN)

Description

Accredited 3-day M_o_R Foundation course from PeopleCert. Learn how to manage risk in projects, programs and organizations. Certification is included in the course.

M_o_R (Management of Risk) is a globally recognized risk management methodology administered and certified by PeopleCert. The methodology offers a structured framework for working with risks at four levels: strategic, programmatic, project and operational. It is not just theory — M_o_R defines specific principles, processes and approaches that can be used in an organization of any size.
 
The M_o_R Foundation course is the entry level of the M_o_R certification path. Over three intensive days, you will gain a solid foundation in the methodology — you will understand how risks are identified, assessed and responded to. At the same time, you will prepare for the PeopleCert certification exam, which is part of the course.
 
Passing the Foundation is also a prerequisite for the follow-up M_o_R Practitioner certification, where you focus on the practical application of the methodology in a real organizational context.
