SUMMARY:ERM MASTER CLASS 2026 MANDATORY TRAINING
DESCRIPTION:THE INSTITUTE OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS OF KENYA\n(Established under the Accountants Act\, Laws of Kenya) \nERM MASTER CLASS 2026 MANDATORY TRAINING\nTHEME: Navigating Uncertainty Through Adaptive Enterprise Risk Management\nDATE: 21st – 25th SEPTEMBER 2026\nVENUE: SAROVA WOODLANDS HOTEL\, NAKURU\nTIME: 09.00AM-03.30PM\n(This is one of the mandatory trainings for Practicing Certificate consideration) \nOVERVIEW \nThe global business environment is experiencing unprecedented levels of uncertainty and disruption. Organizations are operating amidst economic volatility\, geopolitical tensions\, climate-related challenges\, rapid technological advancements\, evolving regulatory requirements\, and increasing stakeholder expectations. These developments have fundamentally altered the risk landscape\, requiring organizations to rethink how risks are identified\, assessed\, managed\, and leveraged to create sustainable value. \nThe World Economic Forum’s Global Risks Report continues to highlight critical risks facing organizations including cyber insecurity\, climate change\, misinformation and disinformation\, geopolitical conflicts\, economic instability\, and disruptions arising from emerging technologies. At the same time\, organizations are increasingly embracing Artificial Intelligence (AI)\, automation\, digital platforms\, and data-driven business models\, creating both unprecedented opportunities and new categories of risk that require effective governance and oversight. \nWithin Kenya and across the region\, organizations continue to navigate an increasingly dynamic environment characterized by economic pressures\, regulatory reforms\, digital transformation initiatives\, sustainability demands\, cybersecurity threats\, supply chain vulnerabilities\, and heightened public scrutiny. These realities demand that organizations build resilience\, strengthen governance\, improve strategic agility\, and enhance their ability to respond effectively to emerging risks and opportunities. \nConsequently\, Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) is no longer viewed merely as a compliance or control function. Modern ERM has evolved into a strategic management discipline that supports decision-making\, drives organizational performance\, protects value\, enhances resilience\, and enables sustainable growth. Organizations that successfully integrate risk management into strategy and operations are better positioned to anticipate disruptions\, adapt to change\, capitalize on opportunities\, and maintain stakeholder confidence. \nThe ERM Master Class 2026 has been designed to equip participants with advanced knowledge\, and strategic insights necessary to navigate today’s complex risk environment. Building upon traditional ERM principles\, this year’s programme introduces contemporary themes including Artificial Intelligence governance\, cyber resilience\, climate and sustainability risks\, organizational resilience\, risk analytics\, digital transformation\, and the future role of risk professionals. \nThrough expert-led sessions\, practical workshops\, case studies\, simulations\, and peer learning opportunities\, participants will gain practical skills and actionable insights that can be immediately applied within their organizations. The Master Class will also provide an excellent platform for networking\, benchmarking\, and sharing experiences with fellow professionals from diverse sectors. \nThe following five modules cover the key fundamental learning areas; \n\n\n\nDAY\nMODULE \nTOPICS \n \nKEY AREAS TO BE COVERED\n\n\nDAY 1\nFoundations of Enterprise Risk Management and Strategic Risk Leadership\n§  Enterprise Risk Management Fundamentals \n§   Strategic Risk Management \n§   The Evolving Risk Landscape\n1.    Key concepts and principles of Enterprise Risk Management \n2.    Evolution of risk management from compliance to strategic value creation \n3.    Differences between traditional risk management and Enterprise Risk Management \n4.    COSO ERM Framework and ISO 31000:2018 \n5.    Integrating risk management into organizational strategy and performance \n6.    The role of risk professionals as strategic business partners \n7.    Understanding the current global and local risk landscape \n8.    Regulatory and governance considerations affecting ERM \n9.    Roles and responsibilities of Boards\, Management and Risk Functions \n10.
