An Hours Understanding

The Optimal Risk Training An Hours Understanding is a suite of one-hour workshops based on an hours presentation and discussions of unique topics. The modules can either be delivered as stand-alone presentations, or they can be taught as whole modules; the choice is entirely yours.

Course aims

The aim of An Hour’s Understanding is to arm delegates with a unique range of skills that can be approached as and when appropriate to their timetable. The course will also offer learners the opportunity to study either a single sub-module or a complete module at their discretion.

The presentation/discussions will be delivered online, but there is the capacity to deliver in a training room environment.
