This virtual training course is terrific! I was able to move through the material quickly and spend more time to refresh on less familiar topics. The course was well organized and clearly follows the safety lifecycle structure.

Functional safety background
The international standard IEC 61508 introduced functional safety to industry more than 20 years ago to help design better, more reliable systems with embedded electronics and software.
However, many companies have struggled to implement these standards in real projects because they are technical and must be woven into existing processes and quality systems.
We're keen to help companies implement better, more practical systems, backed by years of experience. That starts with building a solid understanding of what functional safety is all about.
We've developed numerous eLearning modules to help teams develop new skills. By creating lessons across the entire safety lifecycle, we offer course modules for industry professionals working across multiple disciplines.
From hazard and risk assessment to design, engineering, testing, maintenance, and management, we offer modules that teach how safety systems are implemented and sustained over time.
