IRM ties up with NMIMS

The Enterprise Risk Management programme is open to students of any college, working pros, and entrepreneurs.

Institute of Risk Management (IRM), headquartered in the UK, along with its India Affiliate, has partnered with NMIMS, to offer a professional programme in Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) through NMIMS’ Centre of International Studies (NMIMS-CIS). The programme will cover live, virtual study sessions, delivered by NMIMS, and integrated with IRM’s global ERM examinations from level 1 to level 3. The highly interactive online lectures, exercises, mock tests and case studies qualify for academic credits and certification from NMIMS (Deemed to be University), with globally-recognised professional designations from IRM.

Entry into the ERM Programme is not restricted to NMIMS students; the programme is open to students studying at any other college, working professionals as well as entrepreneurs and business owners. Aspirants from across India can enrol virtually in separate batches, starting with level 1 all the way up to level 3.

Hersh Shah, CEO, IRM India Affiliate, said: “With NMIMS’ legacy in quality management education and IRM’s global leadership and expertise in ERM qualifications, the professional ERM programme will produce talent equipped with complex problem-solving, risk-based decision-making, and analytical thinking skills for every function and sector.” Dr Ramesh Bhat, Vice-Chancellor, NMIMS (Deemed-to-be University) said: The blended learning ERM Programme will address the demand-supply gap by helping aspirants enhance and develop the necessary skills and knowledge base in this area.”
