About Course

The course aims to equip participants with the tools and techniques to develop crisis management plans. It will start by focusing on the Risk Management methodology in order to allow learners to understand the process of identifying, assessing, and reducing the most common risks in their work environment. The course will also guide participants through the different types of crises (describing origins and their stages) and will provide tools for the preparation of an effective “Crisis Management Plan” within their respective organisations. The training more importantly will engage participants in a variety of activities and exercises, including group discussions and case studies, designed to help them widen their knowledge on the subject matter as well as develop their hands-on abilities.
