Be an internationally-certified Risk Management Professional

If you search ISO standards for ‘risk management,’ you will find several standards, some of which are published as guidance documents to management system standards (e.g., ISO 27005 in support of the Information Security Standard, ISO 27001) and this Standard, ISO 31000.
ISO 31000, Risk Management – Guidelines
While its title might suggest that it contains practical advice on managing risk, it does not. ISO 31000 is devoted to exploring a framework for understanding risk when defined as the ‘effect of uncertainty on objectives.’ And so, for direction and practical advice on the management of risk (i.e., actual guidelines), we must look elsewhere.
ISO-IEC 31010, Risk Assessment Techniques
This International Standard was prepared by IEC Technical Committee 56: Dependability, in co-operation with ISO Technical Committee 262: Risk Management. It is published as a double logo standard, i.e., ISO/IEC.
It provides guidance on the selection and application of various techniques that can be used to help improve the way uncertainty is taken into account and to help understand risk.
The techniques are used:
- where further understanding is required about what risk exists or about a particular risk;
- within a decision where a range of options, each involving risk, need to be compared or optimized;
- within a risk management process leading to actions to treat risk.
The techniques are used within the risk assessment steps of identifying, analyzing, and evaluating risk as described in ISO 31000 and, more generally, whenever there is a need to understand uncertainty and its effects.
FDA Guidance Document Q9(R1) Quality Risk Management
On 03-May-23, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced the publication of a final guidance for the industry entitled “Q9(R1) Quality Risk Management.” The guidance was prepared under the International Council for Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH).
