The Critical Pathway to Insider Risk (CPIR) Certification Program

While the CPIR has become one of the most widely used frameworks for analyzing risk, little training has been available on how to use this approach. The CPIR Certification Program offers analysts, investigators, mental health practitioners, managers and other interested parties this training, along with a certification credential that can make you and your organization more competent and competitive.   

At the end of two days of small group training participants will be able to:
Understand CPIR risk factors and mitigators;
Use CPIR categories to drive data collection;
Extract CPIR data from a broad array of available information on a subject;
Identify missing information and its potential impact;
Assign available data to  appropriate CPIR categories;
Provide a risk score estimate for an individual and revise that score as new data become available;
Present the CPIR data in  a written report;
Use the CPIR to identify organizational vulnerabilities across cases.

Following two days of class, students will take a half-day certification exam requiring the analysis of a case and submission of a written report. After successful completion of the exam, students will receive a certification diploma.
