6.3Contribute to this chapter

The capability of the workforce that manages the risks in scope: the competencies needed, what learning and practicum show, and where the gaps are. Reported in aggregate only; no learner record is published. Material for this chapter goes to the Academy Capability desk; what belongs to another desk is forwarded, not refused.

Risk Academy reads an edition for capability: what competence exists, what is missing, which pathway closes the gap and which role needs it.

If you teach or assess risk, send aggregate outcomes and the method behind them. The Academy will not accept a file that names a learner.
