Graduates are serving in boardrooms and c-suites on five continents, bringing a positive approach to the governance of risk-taking across multiple industries.

GLOBAL, ORGANIZATION, February 3, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The DCRO Institute, a global nonprofit focused on bringing risk expertise to the boardroom and c-suite, announced today that registrations for its flagship program, The Board Members' Course on Risk^®, reached record levels during January.

"Candidates from more than 25 countries on five continents have enrolled in this program during the 11 months since we launched," said David R. Koenig, President and Chief Executive Officer of the DCRO Institute. "In January alone, we saw candidates come to our program from ten countries, including our first registrants from the United Arab Emirates, Thailand, Belgium, Mexico, and Lebanon."

The Certificate in Risk Governance^® is awarded to those who successfully complete the requirements of The Board Members' Course on Risk^®. The program is unique, as no course on risk for board members as robust as this - depth, practicality, and global expertise - exists anywhere else. The fundamental Duty of Care for directors around risk is to ensure that our organizations take risks well in pursuit of our goals and ambitions. This course furthers the fulfillment of that duty.

Rebecca Brosnan, the most recent graduate of the program, is based in Hong Kong and serves as a non-executive director and member of the board risk committee for The City Bank Limited in Bangladesh. "I loved the Certificate in Risk Governance course," said Ms. Brosnan. "The depth of expertise shared from such a wide variety of disciplines is the perfect foundation for any Board Director or senior leader working with boards."

The DCRO Institute is also the home of the Qualified Risk Director^® designation. Qualified Risk Directors^® have advanced skills and experience in the positive governance of risk-taking. They link risk-taking to corporate purpose and achieving strategic goals, bringing a forward-looking and dynamic mindset to critical board discussions and essential board duties.

Investors, partners, regulators, and boards demand skills in risk governance.
