February 2026: Excelling as a Recorder in Risk Analysis Workshops Webinar

Risk analysis has become a cornerstone of decision-making in the dam industry, with regulatory requirements driving its widespread adoption across water dams and, more recently, mine tailings dams. While much attention is given to the roles of Independent Consultants, Subject Matter Experts, and Facilitators, one role remains both critical and often under-supported: the Recorder.

In this webinar, we draw on extensive experience in dam and tailings risk analysis to demystify the Recorder’s role and highlight its importance to successful risk analysis workshops. Designed especially for Emerging Professionals, this session will provide practical guidance on how to excel as a Recorder—and how other risk analysis team members can help ensure discussions and outcomes are accurately and effectively captured.

Participants will gain insight into the professional benefits of serving as a Recorder, including exposure to diverse technical disciplines, collaboration with seasoned practitioners, and a deeper understanding of how risk informs decision-making. The webinar will explore the key attributes of successful Recorders, strategies for contributing meaningfully during workshops, and tools for capturing complex discussions in real time. We will also discuss how Facilitators, Independent Consultants, and SMEs can better support Recorders through preparation, communication, and collaboration.

Whether you are new to risk analysis workshops or looking to strengthen team performance, this webinar offers valuable perspectives on making the Recorder role a confident, impactful, and rewarding experience.
