Equip your boardroom with the predictive metric designed to evaluate exposure, eliminate blind spots, and turn complex enterprise risk into strategic resilience.
In an increasingly volatile global landscape, organizations face complex, interconnected risks that threaten operational stability and leadership integrity. The TASSE Score provides a comprehensive risk intelligence framework designed to evaluate and strengthen governance across executive leadership, boardrooms, and institutional partners worldwide. By unifying trust, accountability, sustainability, strategy, and ethics, this platform empowers decision-makers to measure uncontrolled exposure, meet fiduciary obligations, and foster long-term organizational resilience.
This framework examines how organizational vulnerabilities across technology, media, supply chains, social responsibility, and corporate ethics are measured and mitigated. It explores how structured boardroom assessments, cross-industry standards, and global collaboration can be leveraged to enhance oversight, protect brand trust, and drive actionable risk mitigation within real-world institutional constraints.
Key Topics Discussed:
Understanding the five dimensions of organizational risk (TASSE framework)
Technological threats, cyber exposure, and emerging AI risks (deepfakes, fake news)
Adverse media coverage and managing misinformation, disinformation, and malinformation
Supply chain challenges, human rights compliance, and ethical sourcing

Provincial regulators of CPAs in Canada do not require that independent providers of CPD be approved to offer courses. Instead, individual CPAs are responsible for assessing whether a CPD activity meets their requirements, and may take activities from any source provided those requirements are met.
Every course offered on LearnFormula is delivered by a qualified subject matter expert or learning organization, and advances learning objectives that are relevant to the responsibilities or professional competencies of Canadian CPAs. All activities on LearnFormula are quantifiable in terms of hours, and are also verifiable, in that users receive documented evidence of their attendance via a certificate of completion after finishing a course (and this certificate is stored by LearnFormula indefinitely). Nearly 100,000 Canadian CPAs successfully satisfy their CPD requirements via LearnFormula on an annual basis.
