Testimonials
Inspiring feedback from past students of our Risk Management and ERM certification programs. Discover their success experiences.
Completing the ARiMI-CERM™ and ARiMI-CPRM™ programs provided me with a useful approach and roadmap to operate as an effective risk manager for my organization. Given the multitudes of risks my company is exposed to, ARiMI’s Enterprise Value Risk Assessment (EVRA) provides focus on the risks that really matter, the key risks affecting key resources and processes. EVRA has been approved as the official risk assessment process for my company’s operational risks.
ARiMI-CERM™ also serves as the guide in developing the risk maturity and ethical risk awareness culture of my company. Marc always emphasizes that risk management requires an ethical, risk-aware culture and approach, and he lives by example.
I appreciate that Marc is approachable. He still coaches me on how to address specific risk management concerns I encounter in my work.
I was starting out as a young manager, heading the risk management function in my organization and I was never comfortable and convinced with what consultants have been “selling” to the organization. But things quickly changed and I consider myself extremely fortunate to have Marc as my teacher in ARiMI when I decided to pursue a certification in enterprise risk management. He shared his wealth of knowledge in risk management in the most engaging manner, often combining risk management theories with invaluable work experiences and events that happened in the past and present.
What I found most rewarding from Marc’s coaching philosophy was that he has instilled confidence in me, and I believe also to all his students, to design and internalize a robust risk management framework for my employer and potential future employers.
It is obvious that there isn’t a risk management framework that fits a “one-size-fit-all” bill and Marc ensures that he had time to communicate with us and give us tips to assist us in our work.
I am a proud gradudate from batch AX22 and I have been applying Marc’s teachings to great effect in my course of work. I would strongly recommend budding risk management professionals or anyone who needs guidance in risk management to engage Marc and ARiMI.
The online learning portal is very useful. I would recommend anyone who wish to learn in depth about risk management to undergo training under ARiMI.
Marc demonstrated excellent qualities not only as an experienced risk strategist, but also a captivating and truly inspiring lecturer and mentor. During the 9 months of the ARiMI-CERM™ certification class, I was impressed with his ability to combine a deep understanding of the theoretical tenets of risk and compliance with their practical applications on complex real-life cases. I could not recommend him more.

Marc opened my eyes on how I can become more effective on my job and further fuelled my curiosity to seek out all possible scenarios in the management of risk. Thanks Marc for your guidance!
Marc is a thought leader in the area of Enterprise Risk Management (ERM). His ability to transform his vast experience into practical concepts and great learning experiences for Risk Management Professionals is outstanding.
Marc has moved the concept of ERM well beyond the stage of being a theoretical concept to the stage of being a real value-add business function. Breaking up the silo management of process of traditional special risk areas like Financial Risk, Operational Risk, Safety & Security, fraud and many others, his approach truly focuses on achieving the business objectives of any organisation rather than pure control & compliance.
I, therefore, highly recommend Marc as coach and expert in the area of Enterprise Risk Management.
Marc is an expert risk strategic and an excellent mentor and coach. Having participated in the ARiMI CPRM™ program in 2015 in Singapore, I have progressed on 12 months later to establishing my own safety, risk & strategy consultancy in New Zealand. Marc has a wealth of experience which he is able to blend into his coaching programs, making theories and models come to life in business.

I attended ARiMI’s Risk Management course some time ago in late 2012 stretching into 2013. The CPRM™ course taught by Marc Ronez has served me well over the last decade in identifying risks and finding cost effective ways to mitigate them over the three to four organisations that I have worked for since 2013.
While this recommendation is written (in 2024) some time after the course, the fact that I have written it proves the applicability and usefulness of lessons that Marc thought. If he is still conducting the course, I recommend it heartily, and with no hesitation. Marc Ronez is an expert in this area.
The ARiMI program fundamentally changed the way I think about business and I wish I had undertaken it 20 years ago. This was in large part due to Marc’s expertise, analysis and humour that made risk management an engaging topic for learning (no easy task). He is an excellent teacher. I was also (pleasantly) surprised by Marc’s in-depth understanding of the particular challenges facing not-for-profits. This was unexpected and made my time with Marc and ARiMI even more valuable.

Thought it would be a struggle to deliver a topic like Risk Management over a long 8 days period. But because of the excellent way Marc has facilitated the training, I have learned well and benefitted much from the course. He had a great way of putting across the information (of a very dry subject) in a very entertaining and engaging manner.
He shared real-life case studies, videos and lively discussions to make the whole experience so interesting and fulfulling. It was one of the BEST training courses I have attended. Thank you.
The CPRM™ is a well-structured program that is relevant and applicable to my work. I thoroughly enjoyed the class and team discussions as it gave us the opportunity to practise what we have learned. The instructor is an exceptional trainer who is able to bring across the concepts clearly and is open to sharing his experiences.
I attended the CPRM™ certificaton program at ARiMI in 2011. The course is very productive; it enlarges my experience and knowledge of risk management as well. Besides, I have also met classmates from different industries and countries.
The instructor has rich experience in this area and lots of creative view point on problem solving. His CSS methodology is very useful in looking at company key processes and key factors to define risks. Such methodolgoy can be used for work and personal life.
Marc is a great instructor who explains the courework very clearly. His past work experiences also make the course really interesting and relevant to what we are learning and why we should apply what we have learnt to our actual work.
The instructor is a highly experienced and competent Risk Strategist, far beyond a typical ‘consultant’ trainer. He understands the practical challenges faced by commercial companies and offers relevant, practical solutions.
The ARiMI-CCRO™ program is an extensive and efficient program that equips today’s risk professionals with skills and knowledge to be above the competition.
I am very glad I chose the CRA™ program offered by ARiMI. I aimed to gain a comprehensive understanding of Risk Management and its various frameworks, and Marc delivered exactly that with engaging use cases that made learning more practical and insightful. Additionally, the diversity of attendees brought valuable perspectives to the class discussions. I strongly recommend this course!
