IRTC establishes courses that train professionals in industry, research and policy-making, making them “material risk managers” capable to identify and take action to mitigate their supply risks. These courses will be standardized and ISO-certified and are guided by a dedicated expert group. After taking a basic IRTC course, participants shall be able to:
- define risks associated to criticality
- apply risk concepts to raw material security of supply
- distinguish different levels of analyis
- know common risk types for specific stakeholder groups
- know the common criticality assessment methodologies
- know criticality indicators and their data bases
After two pilot trainings in 2022 and 2023, a first version of a complete course including an exam leading to a certificate shall take place in 2024.
