This online course runs June 10-11, 2026. The Certified Third Party Risk Assessor (CTPRA) designation is a professional credential that validates expertise, decision making and proficiency in third-party risk and controls evaluation. The program includes the processes for identifying, quantifying, and mitigating third-party risk within an organization’s TPRM program. 12 CPEs can be earned for completing the course.

When a systemic cyber incident strikes, your actual attack surface is your entire vendor ecosystem. With attackers leveraging software dependencies and Nth-party sub-vendors to cause widespread disruption, passive annual questionnaires are no longer enough. Your Third-Party Risk Management (TPRM) program must shift from static compliance to active incident response. In this fast-paced, 60-minute session, we strip away the fluff to deliver a battle-tested playbook for modern risk leaders. You will learn: • The Active Response Framework: TPRM’s exact role during a cascading incident, and how to manage the operational aftermath when a critical vendor goes dark. • High-Velocity Ad Hoc Vetting: When and how to trigger rapid, targeted vendor assessments without stalling operations. • Crisis Communication: Best practices for coordinating real-time communication between internal leaders (InfoSec, Legal, C-Suite) and impacted third parties. Join us to transform your TPRM program from a defensive checklist into an offensive resilience engine.

Improve your readiness for the Shared Assessments CTPRP exam by attending the CTPRP Open House, which will be led by Elizabeth Dunsmoor, TPRM Principal, Shared Assessments. This event will provide you with the chance to ask any questions related to the CTPRP course content as you prepare for the exam. This session will also include general exam readiness tips.

Join us for an in-depth look at the Standardized Information Gathering Questionnaire (SIG) and its evolution into the web based SIG EV platform. This session will focus exclusively on the SIG Excel and SIG EV, demonstrating how organizations can modernize their third-party risk management approach.

The team will walk through how the SIG Evolution (SIG EV) serves as a SaaS-based upgrade to the traditional SIG Excel, offering a more intuitive interface, secure information sharing, live dashboards, built-in file validation, and role-based access. You’ll also gain clarity on when to leverage each version—whether you’re a vendor responding to assessments or an outsourcer managing third-party risk. This session is ideal for those exploring Third-Party Risk Management tools and looking to streamline their assessment processes using industry-standard frameworks.

Point-in-time assessments are obsolete the moment they are submitted. To protect your organization from modern supply chain breaches, your Third-Party Risk Management (TPRM) program must shift to real-time, continuous monitoring. In this streamlined 60-minute session, we cover the essentials to build a proactive defense: • The Visibility Gap: How continuous monitoring catches threats that annual questionnaires miss. • Smart Implementation: Strategies for selecting the right threat data without causing alert fatigue. • Proven Results: Real-world examples of automated alerts stopping vendor threats before they hit your network. Join us to transform your TPRM from a static compliance checklist into a dynamic defense mechanism.

Effective board-level reporting on third-party risk doesn't happen by accident—it requires coordination across the organization, from the analysts pulling data to the executives framing the narrative. Rising incidents and emerging risks like AI and geopolitical disruption are driving boards to demand greater visibility into how risk is being identified, measured, and managed. We'll examine what boards need to see and why, explore best practices for making metrics meaningful rather than merely voluminous, and share candid lessons learned —including common pitfalls and what not to do. Whether you're early in your TPRM journey or refining a mature program, you'll leave with practical takeaways for strengthening the quality, clarity, and credibility of your board reporting.
