The Institute of Risk Management, headquartered in the UK, is the world’s leading professional certifying body for enterprise risk management qualifications and exams (Level 1 to Level 5) and has been driving excellence for over 35 years, across 143 countries.
Congratulating the rank holders, Hashveen Anand, Sr Manager - Exam Reservations, Institute of Risk Management (IRM), India Affiliate, said: "In an era marked by global crises such as geopolitical tensions, energy security issues, climate change, deep fakes, the gig economy, AI, and inflation, organizations face unprecedented challenges. Amidst this complexity, the importance of qualified risk-intelligent professionals has never been more crucial. IRM continues to play a pivotal role in shaping students and professionals to navigate these uncertainties. Embracing an ERM perspective enables one to comprehend risks across diverse domains, equipping them with problem-solving, analytical thinking, and negotiation skills. I extend my heartfelt congratulations to all the candidates and the All-India Ranker of the recent Level 1 ERM examination and warmly welcome the new cohort to our global community, wishing them success in their journey with IRM's Level 2 qualification (IRMCert).”
Data Retention and Information Management Team, Citicorp Services India Pvt Ltd, Nikhil Rawal said: “The overall experience I had with IRM so far has been amazing and learning new aspects about risk management in general. The syllabus reflects the concepts and practical application of the risk management process in the real world, which I was able to relate to at my place of work. For instance, one important aspect of risk management as per IRM standards is that the risk management process should be Proportionate, Aligned, Comprehensive, Embedded and Dynamic. All these aspects are quite evident to me now in all the tasks being performed from a risk management point. The study material provided was quite detailed and easy to understand and with some real-life examples to make the concepts clearer. In addition, the study sessions we had were impactful and were more relevant to me. With that being said, I would encourage individuals who want to progress their career in the risk management profession to enrol for this global certification. The one major key to approach this certification and clear examination is dedicated time being spent on understanding the concepts, topics and going through last year's questions which helped me perform well in the exam. I am also looking forward to getting myself enrolled for the IRM's Level 2 exam and gaining IRMCert designation.”
Maizah Maharoof, Student of Christ (Deemed to be) University, said: “Without a doubt, IRM's Level 1 ERM curriculum was my launchpad into the dynamic world of enterprise-wide risk management. The handbook was detailed but it was the study support sessions that were a force multiplier, amplifying my knowledge from the material. I not only understood theory but was also able to understand and solve real life scenarios, a skill that employers seek. For anyone seeking a competitive advantage through enterprise- wide risk management mastery, IRM's global certification is a must-do. I am now keen on Level 2 and the IRMCert designation as the next steps on my path to a successful career.”
