“Everything in life has some risk, and what you have to actually learn to do is how to navigate It.” – Reid Hoffman

No project is without risks. It is all in how you handle those risks. And the place to start is at the very beginning. The minute that a project idea is discussed is when you and your team should start thinking, “What could happen?” You are not shooting down an idea, you are thinking strategically. In fact, you are helping to ensure the success of this new project. The better prepared that you can be, the more likely you are to be able to navigate those unknown and unplanned events. Yes, you can prepare for the unknown.

The best place for you to start with risk management is also at the beginning. And the pmStudent project risk management course is the perfect way for you to get comfortable with project risk management.

“I have been helping students with their PMP exam prep since 2005 and nearly all of them struggle with risk management. I’ve also published nearly 400 podcast interviews and my listeners always ask about risk management. This course simplifies the complex risk management processes and makes it approachable for anyone, which is why I recommend it. And the templates are the cherry on top.”
