All AFA M_o_R trainers have undergone the rigorous approvals process administered by the APM Group on behalf of the Cabinet Office. They are practising risk managers with considerable experience in a wide range of industry sectors. Many of them have served on Manual Review Boards and act as examiners or assessors. The use of hybrid trainer-managers is of great benefit to delegates and ensures that illustration and anecdotes have up-to-date validity and that the training given, whilst being true to the syllabus is also pragmatic.

This course takes place over five days, including the optional Foundation and Practitioner examinations.

Delegates should be aware that considerable evening preparation and consolidation will be required by those that wish to pass the exams.
