Incident Investigation

Banner Image for Incident Investigation Training Course.

Learn to effectively investigate major accidents and other high potential events, and to control their causes.

To meet high demand, constrained budgets and travel restrictions, DNV GL now offers Incident Investigation training in both in-class and live online environments. Take the course while at work or in your home office!

Incident Investigation is designed to provide participants with critical knowledge and skills to thoroughly and professionally investigate very serious, complex, and/or high potential events. The course is based on real industrial safety and process events, but the content is applicable to investigation of environmental, quality, and other loss and near-loss events. The course is available as a public (open registration) or private (on-site or LiveOnline) event.

Who Should Attend:
For persons whose responsibilities include investigation of very serious and/or high-potential events. Candidates include HSEQ professionals and operating managers who might be called upon to participate on teams for high-level investigations. In addition, persons who might be designated as primary resources for guidance on the development of investigation processes and coaching of supervisors and others who have investigation responsibilities will find this course invaluable.

Course Highlights:

  • Understanding how incidents happen
  • Planning an investigation process
  • Gathering evidence from Positions, People, Parts and Reconstruction, Paper
  • How human factors impact investigations
  • Cause analysis techniques
  • Remedial Actions
  • Report and follow-up

The course is built around a robust case study of an actual event. Participants are provided abundant information about this event and challenged to apply the investigation tools and techniques taught in the course to determine causes and appropriate remedial actions.

This practical application strengthens their understanding of the text material and reinforces key points about the investigation process.
