Become part of the global network of Quantitative Risk Management professionals. The CQRM (Certified in Quantitative Risk Management) is an International Certification awarded by the International Institute of Professional Education and Research (IIPER). It is aimed at managers, directors and analysts of the governmental, business, financial and academic sectors interested in acquiring updated and practical knowledge in risk management from a quantitative approach to measure, analyse and make decisions.
The participants will earn the certification whilst learning from global experts, advanced topics and practical applications of risk management. Upon completion, a validation of knowledge will be conducted to obtain the CQRM title.
By participating in the certification, attendees will have elements to analyse and interpret data for risk measurement, understand the results obtained as well as suggest and make decisions based on the Monte Carlo risk simulations, statistics and econometric analysis, optimisation and real options applicable to their projects or investments.
Why attend this certification?
- To be certified internationally as a Quantitative Risk Manager (CQRM-IIPER).
- The opportunity to learn from world experts who have outstanding credentials and extensive practical experience.
- Understand how to make more informed decisions in times of uncertainty and achieve better business outcomes.
- Learn about the latest theoretical approaches and practical applications for risk analysis and management.
- Update and immerse yourself in techniques that allow you to understand the past, the present and more accurately forecast the future.
- To model industry-specific problems and implement risk analysis using Risk Simulator, Real Options SLS, and PEAT tools, capable of analysing large volumes of information and working with the latest implementation of risk management analytics.
Who should attend?
The CQRM course is aimed towards any managerial or professional occupation, including engineers, managers, directors, analysts, entrepreneurs, and so forth, who are interested in acquiring updated and practical knowledge in risk management from a quantitative approach to measure, analyse and make decisions. Therefore, this accreditation suits any governmental, business, energy, logistics, financial or academic sectors, at any professional level.
General prerequisites (recommended)
- A bachelor’s degree or in the final year (preferably, but not necessarily, in engineering, management, business, or economics), or equivalent training plus at least two years of working experience.
