What is the Model Risk Management course about?

Many risk practitioners move from validation tasks to ownership roles without structured support. Gaps in documentation standards, version control, and cross-functional alignment slow down reviews and increase rework. The expectation to ‘just know’ how to scale practices creates friction in high-stakes environments.
