It is built for people who run continuity inside Russia but work in English every day — international groups with Russian subsidiaries, expatriate risk and security leaders, and Russian companies whose head office reports to a foreign parent, an insurer or an auditor in English.

Frequently asked questions

What is ERGP?

ERGP stands for Enterprise Resilience Governance Professional — an online course and certification in business resilience governance. This edition is written in English for the Russian market.

How is this different from the risk-place.org edition?

Same discipline, different market. This edition is priced in roubles and built around the standards Russian entities are audited against, including GOST R ISO 22301. The risk-place.org edition is built for the Gulf, around NCEMA and central bank requirements there.

How long does the course take?

You work through ERGP at your own pace and start any day. Access to the materials runs for 6 months from payment — enough to complete all six modules, work through the self-checks and revisit chapters before the final assignment.

What kind of certificate will I get?

A personal ERGP certificate with a unique number — a risk-place certificate of completion, not a state document. Its value is the assessment behind it: six tests and a reviewed final assignment. Authenticity is verified by number.

How is this different from webinars and one-day courses?

It is a systematic programme with assessment, not a recording of lectures: a self-check after each part, a test after each module, and a final assignment reviewed with an expert.

Can we take it as a team?

Yes, team access is available. Write to us and we will agree the format and terms.
