Product Information

If your risk register is a once-a-year exercise that gathers dust in a shared folder, this session is for you. We’re going beyond risk theory into the messy reality of running a practice or managing a finance department where things go wrong fast. You’ll learn how to spot the real threats, keep your register lean but effective, and turn risk management into something useful (even billable). From fraud and cash flow to client complaints and data breaches, this intermediate-level CPD will sharpen your instincts and give you tools you’ll actually use.
