   NATIONAL TRAINING CONFERENCE OVERVIEW FIRMA is proud to sponsor its Sixteenth Annual National Training Conference. The responsibilities of Risk Management Professionals have expanded beyond traditional fiduciary and investment activities. Other areas of responsibilities include asset management, broker/dealer activities, and insurance products. In recognition of this, FIRMA provides training resources to reach the broader range of risk management professionals associated with these activities.
