ACCIDENT-INCIDENT SAFETY INVESTIGATOR TRAINING PROGRAM

 The next session will be scheduled soon, contact Clinton to get on the notification list today!

INSTRUCTOR:  Clinton Marquardt, Sleep & Fatigue Specialist

COURSE HIGHLIGHTS: 

This course is offered in-person across 3 full days or in a live-virtual format across 5 half days.  A 2 day condensed and intensive Accident-Incident Safety Investigator Training Program is available for organizations with a current Safety Management System (SMS). Your SMS investigation components can be mapped onto the CIIP.

The Accident-Incident Safety Investigator Training Program provides participants with a step-wise methodology to investigate accidents and incidents from a Safety Management Systems (SMS) perspective. The method was modelled after internationally recognized investigation processes used by the world's foremost safety boards. The method, now called the Critical Incident Investigation Process (CIIP), has been reviewed, field tested an accepted as the gold standard by senior investigators internationally. The CIIP is a refined and optimized methodology that provides investigators with a comprehensive and practical approach to conducting accident and incident investigations for safety improvement.

During the hands-on course, the instructor leads participants step-by-step through the CIIP that moves the investigation from explaining what happened to why it happened.  The CIIP focusses on understanding the accident or incident from a human factors perspective. It provides both new and experienced investigators with specialized tools to keep the process moving forward even if they encounter roadblocks that make it difficult to explain an accident or incident.

The training program provides participants with the CIIP to follow and a skill-set to facilitate writing reports with strong and accurate conclusions about the risk and causal factors involved in an accident or incident. Participants will learn the material through an engaging use of a case study, safety vignettes and hands-on exercises.

Did you know that most accident investigations do not fix the underlying causes of accidents?

After the training, participants will be able to use the respected Critical Incident Investigation Process  (CIIP) to get to the real reasons the accident happened. You will know “Why” the accident happened and you will know how to fix it!

When you fix the problem, you will be improving safety, reducing human error, controlling risk, getting along better with the regulators and you will be reducing the financial losses of accidents!

One accident can financially cripple a company!

The Accident-Incident Safety Investigator Training Program will help you prevent accidents, and if you only ever prevent one accident, this course will have easily paid for itself! Now is the time to modernize your safety investigation skills with an efficacy-based human factors focus.

 Multimodal Training with Examples, Vignettes, Case Studies and Lessons Learned from an Interesting Array of Industries!

COURSE TOPICS:

     Day 1

• Safety investigation interviewing, the right way

• Managing and communicating with stakeholders and authorities
• Finding out what happened, not why it happened, by collecting the facts
• Photography and video for safety investigations, the right way
• Building an action sequence

     Day 2

• Collecting additional data
• Identifying safety significant actions
• Figuring out why it happened by analyzing the data
• Why-because analyses and a discussion of some alternatives such as PEMEP, root cause, Ishikawa/fish bone/cause & effect, and substandard acts/conditions analyses
• Developing and testing preliminary explanations
• Identifying risk factors

     Day 3 

• Identifying causal factors
• Performing a mitigation assessment
• Performing a risk assessment
• Developing a corrective actions plan
• Documenting the investigation

AFTER THE COURSE YOU WILL BE ABLE TO:

• Effectively and efficiently conduct accident and incident investigations
• Understand the step-wise process of investigating an accident or incident from initial notification to reporting
• Confidently interact with stakeholders and authorities
• Identify and preserve perishable data
• Use the CIIP to understand “what” happened and “why” it happened
• Use the human error identification tools to keep the investigation process moving forward
• Identify risk and causal factors using why-because analyses
• Articulate data driven explanations for accidents and incidents
• Evaluate the need for additional mitigations
• Perform risk assessments to determine the need for safety action
• Propose corrective action plans
• Draft reports that flow logically from accident narratives to data descriptions and analyses and clearly identify the risk and causal factors involved in accidents and incidents
