ISO 37301:2021. Compliance management

Compliance is required everywhere. Every organization in the world has compliance obligations to meet. The regulatory landscape is in constant change and organizations need systems to make sure they keep up.

Since the consequences of noncompliance can be catastrophic to an organization, the need for a systematic approach to compliance management, to ensure that compliance obligations are identified and understood and that compliance risks are assessed and treated, becomes evident.

This online course discusses all the requirements of ISO 37301, the international standard for compliance management systems, to help you understand the approach to compliance management of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO).

We will see what is a compliance management system, what is the purpose of ISO 37301, what is the structure of the standard and who can use it.

The course follows the structure of the standard, so we will discuss about the context of the organization, about the identification of compliance obligations and the compliance risk assessment. We will talk about how critical it is for the compliance management system to be supported by the senior management.

At the end you will find information about the certification to ISO 37301 as a company but also as a compliance management professional.
