Advanced Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) Masterclass

Enterprise risk management that runs as one discipline across the organisation — framework design, risk appetite, quantitative analysis and the updated COSO ERM model, built for implementation.

The programme

Traditional risk management, run function by function, no longer covers the risks organisations actually carry — the gaps between silos are where losses breed. This masterclass treats ERM as an enterprise-wide discipline: a framework the board can govern, a risk appetite that disciplines decisions, and roles and responsibilities that make risk everyone’s job with someone accountable. The programme covers the updated COSO ERM framework alongside competing frameworks, quantitative risk analysis, and the governance duties of boards and management. The cohort works from definition through implementation to monitoring and evaluation, so participants leave able to start an ERM programme rather than describe one.

What you will do

Build an ERM framework your board can govern, with roles and responsibilities assigned across the enterprise.
Set a risk appetite and risk profile that discipline which risks the organisation runs and which it refuses.
Weigh competing ERM frameworks and select deliberately, including the updated COSO ERM model.
Run quantitative risk analysis and feed the results into decisions rather than filing them.
Stand up monitoring and evaluation that improves the ERM programme year on year.
Position ERM within corporate governance, clarifying what the board owns and what management executes.

Who attends

  • Chief Risk Officers and enterprise risk management teams
  • Directors and managers responsible for the risk function
  • Heads of internal audit and assurance functions
  • Senior finance, compliance and project leadership

Cohorts bring together board members, executives and the rising leaders behind them — kept deliberately small, so every seat is a peer’s.

Frequently asked

Is this ERM masterclass suitable if we are starting from scratch?

Yes. The programme moves from definition through implementation to monitoring and evaluation, including how to sequence an ERM implementation and embed the programme across the organisation. Participants leave able to start an ERM programme rather than merely describe one, with a framework the board can govern and roles and responsibilities assigned across the enterprise.

Which ERM frameworks does the masterclass cover?

The programme covers the updated COSO ERM framework alongside competing frameworks, comparing the types so participants can select deliberately rather than by default. It then works through structuring and developing a sound framework for your own organisation, setting a risk appetite and risk profile, and running the quantitative risk analysis that feeds results into decisions.

How is the masterclass delivered, and can it be run in-house?

Delivery is available in English and French, on a rolling calendar with dates confirmed on request. Fees and quotations are provided on enquiry. An in-house edition tailored to your organisation is also available — a natural fit for ERM, where the framework under discussion is your own and the board, risk and audit functions benefit from attending together.
