Risk Management Awareness

Each year, hazardous industries face thousands of preventable incidents, many caused by unmanaged risks. This high-impact training course equips learners with the knowledge and practical tools to identify, assess, and control risks before they cause harm. 

The course introduces key concepts such as hazards, risks, and controls, outlines how to carry out structured risk assessments, and explores how interventions, dynamic assessments, and management of change all contribute to safer working environments. 

Tailored for high-risk sectors such as oil and gas, maritime, wind energy, and heavy industry, this course offers scenario-based learning, interactive exercises, and real-world examples to embed essential skills and improve risk literacy across your workforce.

This training is suitable for:

• Personnel in hazardous environments (onshore or offshore)
• Supervisors and safety coordinators
• Permit-to-work approvers and risk assessors
