Provided a solid conceptual basis. At times it seemed like some of the concepts were redundant or overlapped. I wonder if the same knowledge base would have been achieved in lesser slides or time but overall was a beneficial course

Presented in an easy-to-understand manner.
Liked that it was was described as an ongoing process that does not require as rigid an approach as I would have expected.

The course was a good summary of what ERM is, however, I would have liked to walk away with a "starting point" or template of objectives to consider.
