Describing a Risk – Lunch and Learn CalQRisk Webinar

As part of the WSA’s partnership with CalQRisk – the WSA’s Governance, Risk & Compliance management provider – the WSA will be running a brief online lunch and learn on ‘Describing a Risk’

Most WSA members have developed risk registers and CalQrisk tend to import these as part of the onboarding process when members take on their system. Generally, a risk register is managed on spreadsheets, but one aspect of what CalQRisk see, is the huge variation on how a risk is described.

CalQRisk will run a short lunchtime Teams webinar on “Describing a Risk”. The team rely on the ISO 31000 risk management standard as current best practice.
