Risk Management in Development Projects

Project risk management seeks to preemptively manage positive and negative events that may affect a project to improve its chance of success. This Massive Online Open Course (MOOC) has been delivered in English, Spanish, and Portuguese, with more than 35k participants registered. It is self-paced, which means students can enroll at any time.

At the end of the course, you will be able to:

  1. Identify risks in scenarios of uncertainty.
  2. Recognize the process of identification of risks and documenting their characteristics to facilitate risk analysis and management.
  3. Recognize the main elements of the risk analysis process.
  4. Recognize risk management strategies for opportunities and threats that could impact the project’s objectives.
  5. Recognize the main elements of the risk monitoring process to improve efficiency when managing the project life cycle.

My Role:

Manage project and develop learning resources

I was responsible for creating learning resources alongside team leaders and stakeholders. In addition, I did the project management and implementation of the MOOC on the edX platform and the course delivery in Portuguese as instructional videos, scripts, reading material, questionnaires, and infographics.
