Why become a IIRSM Course Delivery Partner?

Becoming a IIRSM Course Delivery Partner will enable you to deliver a practical and engaging learning experience to your delegates through courses developed by IIRSM, using our expertise and experience. Our courses use real-life case studies, short bursts of content delivery, along with video, interactive polls, group discussion and reflective activities to understand how the theory applies to individuals’ own workplace scenarios. 

As a IIRSM Course Delivery Partner you will have a full or provisional licence to deliver our one-day course Managing Risk: The Essentials and/or our two-day course Managing Health & Safety Risks. The courses can either be delivered commercially (publicly) or in-house within your own organisation.

A full licence gives immediate access, once approved, to all the course resources and materials whereas a provisional licence gives you permission to market and advertise the IIRSM course(s) using the approved licence holder logo but does not give access to the materials and resources. Once you are ready to go ahead with delivery of a course you will need to inform us, and we will grant a full licence on payment of the remaining balance of the normal licence fee.

 

How do I become a IIRSM Course Delivery Partner?

You will need to apply via a Survey Monkey Form and provide us with details of a "main contact". This is the person who will be responsible for ownership of the licence and relationship with IIRSM. They will be someone who has the experience, knowledge, and authority within the organisation to oversee and manage all activities relating to the course(s) and their delivery.

You will also need to supply us with the details of the trainers who will be delivering the course(s). All Course Delivery Partner Trainers need to be members of IIRSM at Associate level at least.

For more advice see our guidance document here.

 

How do I become a Course Delivery Partner Trainer?

All trainers delivering the course(s) must be suitably qualified in risk management or health and safety and experienced in CPD delivery.

Trainers must also be, as a minimum, an Associate member of IIRSM. If you are not already a member of IIRSM you should apply for membership before applying to become a trainer.

Trainers must be approved by IIRSM before they can deliver any courses. All prospective trainers will be asked to benchmark and self-assess themselves against the IIRSM Risk Management and Leadership Competence Framework as well as providing an up-to-date CV.

For more advice see our guidance document here.

Trainers will also be expected to view the train-the-trainer materials for the course and CPD delivery.

Potential Course Delivery Partners will need to add details of their trainer(s) at the time of application.

Additional trainer(s) can be added at any time during the approval period but these need to be received well in advance of any proposed courses the trainer wants to deliver. It can take IIRSM up to three weeks to approve a trainer.

All approved trainers will receive a certificate confirming their status and they will be given access to the relevant course community area on the IIRSM website.

What support will I receive as a IIRSM Course Delivery Partner?

The main contact plus all approved trainers will have access to a community area on the IIRSM website for each course you are licenced to deliver.

In the community area you will find:

  • The full course presentation, including videos and case studies.

  • Trainer guidance on delivering the course(s). This also includes train-the trainer resources, documents and videos.

  • Downloadable copies of the learner workbook and resources for the licenced course(s).

  • Downloadable feedback/evaluation forms.

  • Guidance on how you can tailor the course to ensure its relevance to specific groups of learners.

  • Discounted membership for course attendees who will get access to IIRSM member benefits and global community.

  • Information about the benefits of IIRSM membership.

  • Plus additional documentation such as:

    • Application forms

    • Marketing guidance

    • Privacy & Cookie policies
