Accredited training in risk and safety management

Risktec offers a structured programme of accredited risk management modules leading to formal post-graduate qualifications in Risk and Safety Management. Courses are delivered in partnership with Liverpool John Moores University (LJMU) in the UK. The programme aims to help bridge the competence gap in hazardous industries.

Alternatively, single modules can be delivered on a stand-alone basis to gain Continuous Professional Development (CPD) points. Modules can also be delivered without assessment. All modules and programmes can be delivered at client premises.

THE PROGRAMME

The post-graduate programme is designed to meet the growing need for industry-related courses and qualifications in risk management, delivered by teachers with industrial experience. The courses are practical and aim to develop the skills and knowledge of students.

To meet client requirements, we customise the modules to create business-specific courses. In this way, the training tackles the important issues cost-effectively for each client, by ensuring that all learning relates to the client’s operations and facilities, while still being at an accredited post-graduate level.

The approach ensures participants attend courses which are attractive to them as individuals and also completely relevant to their job role and their employer.

Risktec has a proven track record of quality delivery and uses experienced consultants to deliver the modules. All our teachers have been through a comprehensive development process in order to teach at post-graduate level. As a result, we provide a unique mixture of theory and practical experience.
