The IRM Diploma takes students through a structured three level learning process. Students must study level 1 in the prescribed order and are strongly advised not to take more than three modules in any one year. Level 1 and 2 must be completed prior to moving onto level 3.
Level 1: Core modules
This level covers the key concepts, models, codes, tools and techniques used in enterprise-wide risk management.
Level 2: Specialisms
Level 2 builds upon the skills acquired in level 1 by allowing each student to focus on specific technical disciplines and/or business sectors. This enables each student to tailor their own course to their role or environment.
Students are required to take two specialist modules, which can be chosen from one or both categories.
| Technical modules |
Sector modules |
| Project Risk (2008) |
Public Sector (2008) |
Business Continuity and Crisis Management (2008) |

The modules dated (2008) are available for October 2008 registration. The remaining modules will be developed and introduced on a phased basis. Please note IRM has the right to remove any module prior to 1 October where demand is not sufficient.
Level 3: Practical assignment
Level 3 is designed to test students' application of the skills and knowledge learned at levels 1 and 2.
Stand-alone modules
IRM subject modules may also be taken as stand-alone modules, outside of the Diploma qualification. A certificate of completion will be awarded to successful students. Taking stand-alone modules is a great way of keeping your knowledge up to date and earning CPD points.
