Overview

There is never a single cause for an accident and is usually a series of events. This seminar is designed to give the participants an insight in the complexity of accidents and incidents and the methods for prevention and reducing both accidents and the resulting costs. This requires a detailed investigation into why circumstances have cause machinery to break down and even to have caused a physical inquiry. The course uses highly interactive discussions and case study, participants are also encourage to bring real time problems to be discussed as a problem solving exercise.

FAQs

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
