Welcome to the most comprehensive program available on incident investigation and root cause analysis. This course is brought to you by the Professional Training Institute (PTI), a trusted name in delivering practical, industry-aligned professional education designed to build real-world competence. At PTI, our mission is to equip safety professionals, engineers, managers, and supervisors with the skills, frameworks, and confidence to perform at the highest level in their fields.
This course provides an in-depth exploration of incident investigation and root cause analysis (RCA) methodologies used across industrial, commercial, and organizational settings worldwide. Designed for safety professionals, operations managers, engineers, supervisors, and anyone responsible for investigating workplace incidents, it delivers both theoretical foundations and practical, hands-on skills you can apply immediately.
You will learn how to systematically investigate incidents ranging from near misses to catastrophic failures, identify true root causes rather than symptoms, and develop effective corrective actions that prevent recurrence. The curriculum covers internationally recognized frameworks including the 5-Whys, Fishbone Diagrams, Fault Tree Analysis, Event Tree Analysis, TapRooT, Bow-Tie Analysis, and the Management Oversight and Risk Tree (MORT).
Through detailed case studies from the USA, UK, Europe, Asia, and Australia, you will examine real-world investigations including the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, the Piper Alpha disaster, the Bhopal gas tragedy, and the Esso Longford explosion. Advanced techniques such as barrier analysis, human performance evaluation, evidence-linked causal cascades, and cognitive bias mitigation are explored in depth, alongside practical tools for timeline construction, report writing, and corrective action tracking.
By the end of this course, you will possess the competence to lead incident investigations, facilitate RCA sessions, write comprehensive investigation reports, and drive organizational learning that creates a proactive safety culture. Enroll today and take a decisive step toward becoming a confident, capable, and highly valued investigation professional.
