Root Cause Analysis Training Course

The Root Cause Analysis (RCA) Training Course is designed to provide participants with the knowledge and practical skills required to identify the underlying causes of workplace incidents, operational failures, and recurring problems. The course covers proven RCA techniques, including the 5 Whys, Cause & Effect (Fishbone) Diagrams, and structured problem-solving methodologies.

Participants will learn how to investigate incidents effectively, determine root causes, implement corrective actions, and prevent recurrence to improve safety, reliability, and operational performance.
