Overview

Mission

The Corporation is organized and shall at all times be operated exclusively for charitable and educational purposes within the meaning of Sections 170(c)(2), 501(c)(3), and 2055(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"). We offer a growing library of courses, networking, learning, and development opportunities that focus on the positive governance of risk-taking and the practical aspects of risk governance needed to pursue corporate goals and fulfill the purpose of our organizations. As part of our nonprofit mission, we actively work to advance underrepresented groups on boards and provide content to those in developing markets with substantial scholarship discounts.

What it reported doing in 2024

Another overall goal is to focus on helping women attain more positions as board members and C-level executives through attaining our credentials. At the end of 2024, 54% of those who attained our Certificate in Risk Governance(R) were women, 70% of those who earned our Certificate in Cyber Risk Governance (R), and 57% of those who received permission to use our Qualified Risk Director(R) designation were women.

Operating model

Revenue model
Earned-program. 98% of the money available for current operations came from fees and other program revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 98% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and program spending has grown recently. A relatively small share of voting board members are independent and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
