Eight Modules. This course is absolutely necessary for anyone who is required to investigate accidents. It gives you the information needed to effectively analyze the accident event by uncovering the cause of injury, and the primary and contributing surface causes for the accident. Then you learn how to analyze and evaluate your safety management system (SMS) for root causes. You'll learn why, when conducting the accident investigation, the question of fault and possible discipline is irrelevant and inappropriate. The course introduces you to a simple, yet extremely effective six-step procedure to secure the accident scene, collect information, develop the sequence of events, determine surface and root causes, recommend corrective actions and system improvements, and write an effective accident report.
