NEW YORK (November 13, 2015) –  In less than two months, more than 1,000 RIMS members have registered, created profiles, shared ideas and accessed content on Opis “The RIMS Information Network.” Launched on September 24, 2015, this new tool streamlines the process of researching risk management issues and building professional relationships.

It’s encouraging to see how quickly our members have embraced and benefited from this new networking technology.”

HOW OPIS WORKS
Based on members’ skills, experience levels and professional interest areas noted in their Opis profiles, the virtual engagement platform recommends reports, surveys, benchmark studies and articles. Opis also allows users to create online “engagements” or discussion groups to discuss specific risk management topics, trends, challenges and opportunities.

The Opis platform includes content from RIMS Risk Knowledge library, Risk Management Magazine, the Risk Management Monitor blog, the International Center for Risk Management, the Strategic & Enterprise Risk Center and other industry resources. Opis is mobile-friendly. 

Opis “The RIMS Information Network” is available to RIMS members online at www.RIMS.org/OPIS.
