Courses in Risk Management
While URMIA does not recommend or endorse any particular risk management educational program, the following educational programs may be helpful to risk management professionals.
Associate in Risk Management (ARM)
Three courses form the basis of the ARM program: risk assessment, risk control, and risk financing.

Passing the required ARM exams earns the Associate in Risk Management designation.
Associate in Risk Management - ERM (ARM-E)
An additional course, Enterprise-Wide Risk Management: Developing and Implementing is offered for individuals who are interested in acquiring more theory and practical knowledge about enterprise risk management. Passing the course exam, in addition to the ARM course exams, earns the Associate in Risk Management-ERM (ARM-E) designation. Passing only the ERM 57 course earns a certificate of completion.
