And I'm going to be your host and learner advocate. My name is Wes Bryan. And over the last 10 years or better, I have been a technical instructor. I hold various industry certifications, including CompTIA certifications, Microsoft certifications, LPI certification as well. And I'm really, really looking forward to diving into such a great body of topics with you and helping advocate for your success. Now, the person that's going to be driving your success is this gentleman right here, Mr. Chris Ward. Can you tell our viewers a little bit about yourself? Oh, well, thank you very much. Like Wes said, I've been also very similar kind of environment with many, many different certifications over the years from technical side of things to more in the, I would say, these latter years, working in the world of IT service management, project management, governance, risk. Of course, that's why we're going to be talking about C-Risk, which is a great program and a great certification for you to have. Now, here's the thing. This is number two of four courses that are going to be combined to help prepare you for the C-Risk certification. If you haven't checked out the first one, go ahead and do that.

So what are we going to be covering in this particular course? Great question. Well, first off, we're going to be talking more about IT risk assessment practices. This is where we're going to start breaking things down into risk identification, risk analysis, risk response planning. And then we're also going to be, we'll touch a little bit about some of the monitoring of risk, which will be in the next course. And you are going to enjoy this because we're going to give you a lot of definitions that you're going to know and understand. We are going to break down each one of these steps in the process for risk management. And we want you not to only pass the exam. We also want you to maybe learn some real world tips and tricks to help you in your day to day. So join us for this course. I think you're going to enjoy it. Wes, it's going to be great with you.
