GradComm@uky.eduThe Graduate Certificate in Risk Sciences is designed for professionals who are tasked with risk and crisis planning or might have to communicate with internal or external publics in a crisis, but have never had formal education to guide their actions. The coursework, which can be completed in person or online, will provide foundational understanding of risk and crisis communication and practical application of knowledge. Outcomes of the risk communication and crisis communication courses may include research studies, risk communication campaigns, organization risk assessment, crisis communication plans, crisis communication assessments or grant proposals. The training and consulting course addresses theoretical and pragmatic issues of training, consulting and team building. The knowledge management course focuses on how to leverage knowledge assets to more quickly recognize risks and address crises as they emerge.
