The Municipal Association of SC Risk Management Services offers the Risk Management Institute to municipal staff whose employers are members of either the SC Municipal Insurance Trust or the SC Municipal Insurance and Risk Financing Fund, and whose job duties include risk management responsibilities.
RMI helps these employees become more knowledgeable and skilled in risk management while also expanding their network of professional peers and familiarizing themselves with the resources that can help them solve local challenges.
To complete the institute, participants must take a total of eight classes. The institute offers courses at various locations around the state throughout the year, with some online, on-demand courses. Core credits include defensive driving, public works risk management, an introduction to risk management, an introduction to employment liability and workers’ compensation. Elective credits include various topics on fire training, law enforcement training, and participation in the RMS Annual Members Meeting. Because of the complexity of topics, the coursework features a mix of half-day seminars along with full-day workshops. There is no fee for members to participate in the institute.
