Workforce Development Overview

URMIA Empowers Risk Managers

URMIA membership opens you up to many workforce development opportunities that help you up-skill staff or advance your own career. We offer several educational sessions in-person at our annual conference each year, as well as our smaller gatherings in the first half of the calendar year. Bring a colleague, as membership is not required to attend.

Get URMIA content online or become a thought leader. Host a community conversation event to spread the word among your colleagues on campus about effective risk management practices. We also offer webinars on targeted topics, podcasts to listen to, a career center, a risk management study group, discounts to partner events, access to senior risk managers via our member directory or mentor program, and many other ways to add to your skill set. Also, please check our core competencies document that provides a framework of individual characteristics, including knowledge, skills, abilities, and behaviors that identify proficiency and excellence at different career levels and within the overall profession.

Additionally, members are encouraged to join a community specific to their needs to get specialized content and conversations.
