AGERS begins enrollment for the third edition of its Postgraduate Degree in Expert Risk Management

16/05/2019

The postgraduate program is designed for professionals who want to develop their careers in executive and senior management positions with increasing responsibility in the area of business risk management—specifically as those responsible for setting risk management policy and/or implementing suitable strategies.

AGERS has announced the start of the third edition of its postgraduate program in Expert Risk Management (2019-2020), which is offered in collaboration with the University of Barcelona’s Riskcenter, one of the most prestigious and renowned university research centers in Spain and Europe due to its numerous research programs and its educational excellence.

The postgraduate program, which includes a degree from the University of Barcelona, offers subjects corresponding to the European Rimap Certification, promoted and endorsed by FERMA (Federation of European Risk Management Associations).

Only 30 candidates will participate in this edition, where they will develop knowledge in one of the most ambitious and complete programs in the sector.

To earn the postgraduate degree, students must hold a university degree and pass the assessment for their professional career. Students without a university degree will be given a university extension diploma also issued by the University of Barcelona.

The Postgraduate Degree in Expert Risk Management from the University of Barcelona has a study load of 15 ECTS credits (375 hours).
