UMD Just Launched a Risk Consortium to Help Local Leaders

In College Park, a group of local experts just formally launched a tool for government, NGO and industry customers.

With a goal of providing industry insights, applied research, trainings, analytics and more, the consortium is designed to share expertise with the local entities in need.

UMD’s Clifford Rossi, a professor of the practice and executive-in-residence for the Smith School, has been tapped as director of the consortium. Mary Bittle Koenick, the associate director of executive education at Smith, will be the program director. The consortium will also collaborate with executive risk fellows Robert Brammer and William Longbrake.
