CA Mietesh Mirani: AGM, Internal Audit – Cadila Pharmaceuticals Limited, expressed his gratitude to IRM for his success and said “Firstly I would like to thank IRM India Affiliate for the support and guidance. Through Level 2 I have gained knowledge & insights about core ERM concepts including guidance on international frameworks along with practical application tools. The core textbook was detailed and I had access to varied resources on risk management which assisted me in preparing for the exams. My advice to the Level 2 aspirants is to stick to the suggested core reading material first and then move to other reading material. Looking forward to contributing to the profession and pursuing Level 3 GradIRM.”
An alumnus of NM college and currently Interning with the Risk Management department at Central Depository Services India Limited (CDSL), Kajal Jani said “Growing up in a traditional business family blessed me with the ability to think about business risk; however, this was ad hoc thinking. Following my IRM certification, the thought-provoking approach to systematic risk management assisted me in broadening my perspective on Enterprise Risk Management. I am also extremely grateful to IRM India Affiliate for supporting me with an internship at CDSL. I look forward to getting the next milestone in achieving the Level 3 GradIRM and becoming a professional risk manager.”
Pranjal Naphade: Alumnus of ICFAI Business School, working as Process (Treasury) Manager at eClerx Services Limited, said “The path from being a Level 1 aspirant to IRMCert has been developmental; however I feel my risk journey has just begun. I feel elated and privileged that I have started this journey with IRM’s qualification and I am looking forward to it. I would like to congratulate all the candidates who have cleared different levels of examination and best of luck to all the aspirants.”
Certified Enterprise Risk Management professionals are in high demand across every sector as businesses attempt to strengthen their risk intelligence and build resilience towards uncertainties, especially as the global economy continues to recover from the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic. Given that risk is inherent in all aspects, functions and departments of any business, it is imperative for organisations to invest in robust teams of qualified risk professionals who possess the right expertise to steer companies through new and emerging threats, and help to achieve critical business objectives.
IRM’s 5-Level pathway to Certified Fellowship in ERM, with professional designations at each stage after Level 2, certifies candidates’ expertise in ERM while strengthening their problem-solving skills, risk-based decision making, and analytical thinking skills. Students and working professionals can gain a fundamental understanding of ERM by taking the Level 1 examination which is held four times a year – in February, May, August, and November. Successful candidates then proceed for IRM’s Level-2 exam conducted in June and November, where they can choose between the ERM and FSRM electives, earning the IRMCert designation upon clearing the examination.
