The ISRM is inviting security and risk management professionals in its existing network to its inaugural Level 5 Award in Urban Resilience and Major City Management sessions, on a free-to-attend basis.
The first programme for that will be running from May 20-24, with a 2-hour session each day from 08.00-10.00 BST and 16.00-18.00 BST, to give everyone from ISRM’s global network a chance to participate at a time convenient to them.
To help launch this programme, ISRM is inviting people from its existing network to attend free of charge (with a £200 + VAT fee if they want to take the formal certification).
