For most people, even those involved at the highest levels of strategic planning and capability development, there is little if any awareness of the vast ocean of academic material that is available to them, and which deep insight into many of e major issues associated with modern risk and crisis management.

The Level 6 Diploma in Strategic Risk and Crisis Management is a 12-month distance learning programme that gives participants an opportunity to engage in academic reading, research and writing, exploring the academic frameworks and theories that are the foundation of 21^st century strategic risk management.

There are 8 modules, each module with a full-developed support pack, including an introductory paper, assignment instructions, an initial reading list and access to a library of academic papers.

The reading list is offered as the starting point for your own exploration of the literature, and at the end of the module you need to deliver a module paper of 4,000-6,000 words, 50% of which is a literature review, based on your module reading, and 50% which outlines how the information you have gathered could be of use in developing real-world understanding and capabilities.
