AGRC Certificate in Legal Risk

The AGRC Certificate in Legal Risk is designed to give participants a thorough understanding of how legal risks arise, evolve, and can be effectively managed within organisations. It explores the interplay between law, governance, and enterprise risk, and explains how businesses can align legal risk management with corporate objectives to support resilience and sustainability. The course offers an integrated approach, drawing from international standards like ISO 31000 and ISO 31022, while incorporating best practices from legal, regulatory, and ethical frameworks. Through a series of structured modules, participants will examine real-world case studies, frameworks, and tools for identifying, analysing, mitigating, and monitoring legal risks. Topics include contractual strategies, dispute resolution, regulatory compliance, sector-specific risks, and ethical considerations. Learners will gain practical knowledge that empowers them to anticipate emerging risks—such as ESG-related litigation and technological disruption—and to strengthen their organisation’s risk culture and governance practices.
