"Honoring risk management excellence"

Excellence in Risk Management Award - $2,500 Risk Management Grant

CIRMA members' risk management achievements have played a major part in creating the financially strong, stable, and innovative organization that CIRMA is today. Our Excellence in Risk Management Award program recognizes those members that have demonstrated outstanding risk management leadership and results. The Excellence in Risk Management Award application process allows members to nominate their own entity, their own or other department in their entity, or another member's program. Award recipients will be asked share with other CIRMA members their experiences and insights gained from their risk management programs, as well as any plans for the grant.
