RSA Archer Corporate Training
Help your teams learn RSA Archer end to end, from platform navigation to risk registers, questionnaires, workflows, and audit-ready reports.
This instructor-led program builds your team's RSA Archer capability from the ground up: navigating the platform, configuring risk registers and control standards, designing questionnaires and assessment campaigns, automating workflows and notifications, and producing dashboards and evidence packs auditors trust. Guided labs run on realistic GRC scenarios, so teams leave with working Archer configurations and templates they can apply to their own risk and compliance programs immediately.

Program Overview: What is RSA Archer Corporate Training?
RSA Archer Corporate Training is Edstellar's instructor-led program for GRC teams configuring and running RSA Archer. Participants learn platform foundations and navigation, then build risk registers, control standards, and framework content. Topics include designing questionnaires and assessment campaigns, building workflows and automation, and creating audit-ready reports and dashboards.
Each module pairs concept delivery with guided hands-on labs on realistic risk and compliance scenarios. Teams configure Archer applications, build questionnaires, wire workflows and notifications, schedule assessment campaigns, and assemble dashboards. Instructors coach every configuration, reviewing designs against audit-ready standards with direct feedback. The program closes with a capstone: building an end-to-end GRC program in Archer.
GRC teams often underuse Archer: risk data stays scattered, assessments run on spreadsheets, and evidence gathering becomes a quarterly panic. This program teaches your team to configure Archer properly, automate assessment campaigns, and produce audit-ready evidence on demand. Your GRC program becomes a system, not a scramble.
The capstone is an end-to-end GRC program built in Archer: configured applications, questionnaires, automated workflows, and dashboards, reviewed against audit-ready standards. Teams return with a working implementation and the configuration skills to extend it across every risk domain.
Each module pairs concise concept delivery with guided hands-on labs on realistic risk and compliance scenarios. Your team configures applications, builds questionnaires, wires workflows, schedules assessment campaigns, and assembles dashboards they can reuse back at work. A closing capstone asks learners to design and build an end-to-end GRC program in Archer, reviewed by the instructor against audit-ready standards.

Where this Training Fits in Your Team's learning path.
RSA Archer works best once risk and compliance processes are designed, since the tool records what those processes define. Your team frames enterprise risk, builds the compliance programme, then runs GRC in Archer in this course, and finally automates regulatory reporting.

Connect Archer Configuration With Traceable Risk, Controls, and Assessment Evidence
Edstellar connects Archer configuration with the governance processes it is intended to support. Teams build risk and control relationships, assessment questionnaires, workflows, and reporting using realistic GRC scenarios. An integrated program configuration is reviewed for traceability, usable handoffs, and evidence that supports meaningful risk, compliance, and audit decisions.
- Step 01
Consult
We examine GRC responsibilities, risk-register structure, and assessment bottlenecks to establish the cohort's priorities for Archer configuration and evidence management.
- Step 02
Plan
Platform navigation leads into risk and control mapping, questionnaires, workflow automation, and dashboards before the end-to-end GRC program configuration.
- Step 03
Align
GRC process and Archer expertise is aligned with risk, audit, compliance, and IT roles, supporting learners with differing platform experience.
- Step 04
Customize
Sample frameworks, risk records, and assessment campaigns reflect familiar governance structures without importing confidential risk registers or sensitive audit findings.
- Step 05
Execute
Participants map controls, build assessment workflows, and assemble dashboards and evidence packs, receiving feedback on record relationships, routing, and reporting clarity.
- Step 06
Evaluate
We review the GRC configuration for traceable risk-control links, usable assessment flows, coherent reporting, and evidence that supports the stated program design.
