Every project carries risks that can lead to problems, setbacks, and even failure. But did you know that risks can also lead to opportunities? It is important for a project manager to know how to identify and assess risks. That way, opportunities won't be missed and threats will be avoided or lessened. This series will provide you with the tools and techniques to help you plan risk management activities and identify and evaluate risks. You will also learn how to create a risk response and to monitor and control new risks that arise over the course of the project. This series is aligned with "A Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge" (PMBOK ® Guide), published by the Project Management Institute (PMI ®).
