In section 3, we will talk about why we need risk management; we will ask these questions and answer them in section 3. Then, moving on to section 4, we will identify risk, so section 4 is all about risk identification and the method by which we can do so.

Section 5 is all about risk assessment, so we will talk about quantitative and qualitative risk assessments, and we will see a lot of examples on these. In section 6, we will discuss risk responses and controls so there are specific control measures that we can take and there are specific risk response types. In section 7, we will look at the risk register, which is our risk repository for all of the risks that we identify and are managing. In section 8, we will look at risk monitoring and control so, that once we have everything identified and assessed, and inputted in our risk register, we must control these risks on an ongoing basis.
