An intensive professional development training course on
A-Z for Risk, Reliability & Safety Management
Learning from Cases of Major Failures and Disasters -
Putting Root Cause Analysis into Practice
Modules
This training course is split into two modules:
Module I - Case Studies for Learning from Major Incidents – Towards an Operational Excellence
Module II - Advanced Risk, Reliability & Safety Management Techniques
Each module is structured and can be taken as a stand-alone training course; however, delegates will maximise their benefits by taking Module 1 and 2 back-to-back as a 2-week training course.
Why Choose A-Z for Risk, Reliability & Safety Management Training Course?
This A-Z for Risk, Reliability & Safety Management training course examines learning from failures and techniques for decision analysis with emphasis on the use of advanced risk, reliability and operational research techniques and applying them to cases of major failures and disasters.
The idea of the A-Z for Risk, Reliability & Safety Management training course is to look at Learning from Failures. This will be through examining known and topical cases, as well as cases related to the particular own experience of the delegates. This will be based on the analysis of reported disasters with the aim of exploring techniques that can help us to understand the root causes of why those incidents occurred and how such crises unfold over time and hence how can we learn generic lessons from those disasters.
This A-Z for Risk, Reliability & Safety Management training course will feature:
- Understanding of safety, risk and continuity of operations
- Development of people management skills
- Mastering techniques that can enhance plant reliability
- How to conduct benchmarking and quality systems auditing
- Applying decision analysis approaches
The Structure
This comprehensive training course consists of two modules which can be booked as a 10 Day Training event, or as individual, 5 Day training courses.
Module 1 - Case Studies for Learning from Major Failures
Module 2 - Advanced Risk, Reliability and Safety Management Techniques
What are the Goals?
By the end of this training course, participants will be able to:
- Learn Best Practice and learn how to avoid Bad Practice through assessment of case studies of disasters in various industries
- Gain sufficient skills to work in industry as reliability, maintenance, safety and quality professionals
- Explain the benefits of acquiring best practices from High Reliability Organizations (HROs)
- Determine methods for generating and implementing effective performance metrics
- Analyze critically the methodologies employed in the organization & implement improvements
