The five-day Aviation Safety Investigation course has been created to provide an introduction to the key skills required to undertake investigations within the aviation sector. This Cranfield University course is delivered in Australia in partnership with NTRO.
Calling on Cranfield’s almost 50 years of experience in training safety investigators around the world, you will be taught the theoretical knowledge and practical skills required in conducting safety investigations, before you put them into practice when you undertake the key stages in a simulated serious incident investigation.
In teams you will request appropriate evidence, conduct interviews, analyse evidence using a formal model and make safety-based recommendations. The course is designed for those working within the safety function of airlines, airports, ground handling providers, manufacturers, regulators, air navigation service providers or professional associations/unions.
While for professional investigators we recommend Cranfield’s three-week Fundamentals of Accident Investigation course or the six-week Aircraft Accident Investigation course (both offered through the UK campus), this course will also be suitable for support staff of professional investigators.
This five-day classroom-based course will be delivered by industry experienced Cranfield lecturers. The course will consist of lectures, workshops and practical exercises, including realistic role play interviews.
