Risk Managers are in high demand! Distinguish yourself from the crowd and get the credential that sets you apart—Certified Risk Manager (CRM).

Risk management is one of the many responsibilities of a variety of professionals, including accountants, attorneys, financial and insurance professionals, and specialists in loss control. If you are one of these practitioners, you may be ready to take courses or pursue your CRM designation. If you:

  • are a risk manager, financial or insurance professional, licensed agent, broker, accountant, or solicitor,
  • have at least two years of full-time experience in the insurance industry or in risk management,
  • have taken a CRM course through the UACRM program, or
  • have served as a full-time risk management or insurance faculty member at an accredited college or university,

You’ll benefit from attending CRM courses—gaining expertise and credibility with your organization and in the risk management community.

Earning the CRM designation demonstrates your expertise and shows that you are a part of an international network of respected and dedicated risk management professionals.

Earning the CRM Designation

To earn the designation, take all five CRM courses and pass the corresponding exams within five calendar years after you pass your first CRM exam.

Earning Multiple Designations
