• comprehend different organisational risk paradigms and models
• recognize the liability and due diligence implications of risk managers, and how they relate to quantified risk management (QRA) techniques
• apply risk modelling and generative information gathering techniques
• apply the use of mathematics in risk and reliability analysis
• generate safety cases demonstrating due diligence and limiting legal liability
• apply both top-down and bottom-up risk management techniques – and when to use each
• apply risk and reliability concepts and knowledge
• identify and manage risk
• use skills in systems thinking
• work independently
• communicate effectively.
