Quality Risk Management Facilitator Training - New Course

Dec 10 - Dec 12, 2018
Bethesda, MD

  • Education
Duration:  3 days
Time: 8:30 a.m. - 4:00 p.m.

Overview

Since ICH Q9 was first introduced, the industry has been working toward effective implementation and execution of Quality Risk Management. On the road to compliance, one of the barriers in the effective execution of risk management has been the lack of personnel to confidently lead and facilitate complex risk activities. Strong facilitator skills are instrumental when guiding teams through risk management activities. Organizations can thrive when their risk program is effectively, consistently and pragmatically practiced through the use of risk facilitators.

Risk Facilitators have the unique role of engaging multiple disciplines in the risk management process and with this role comes the opportunity to explore the vulnerabilities of an organization (i.e., the risky business). This course will guide individuals in navigating the risk management process as a Risk Facilitator. The attendees will gain perspective on the Risk Facilitator role, identify the key elements of developing and communicating a risk plan, and work with real-life case studies to demonstrate their ability to successfully lead a risk activity, overcome perception, improve personal insights and develop the ability to control biases and other obstacles along the way.

Prerequisites

IMPORTANT NOTE: Participants enrolling in this course must have completed two PDA courses:

If you are interested in registering for this course but have not completed the two courses as prerequisites above, you will be required to submit your CV and participate in a phone interview to demonstrate your competency in risk management principles and formal risk management tools (i.e., PHA, FMEA, HACCP). Please contact Stephanie Ko at [email protected] for more details.
