Overview
The Human Factors Analysis and Classification System (HFACS) is the global benchmark for in-depth and credible analysis of human factors in adverse events. Widely applicable in accident investigation, risk reduction, safety, and productivity enhancement, HFACS is now being offered through specialized training by Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in collaboration with HFACS, Inc.
With human error contributing to 60 to 80% of safety failures, injuries, and quality defects across industries like aviation, healthcare, mining, and manufacturing, mastering its management is crucial for organizational profitability and success.
This intensive 2-day HFACS Course will equip you with scientifically validated methods for transforming errors into actionable insights and effective solutions.
The HFACS Course can be completed independently, or toward the Certificate of Management in Aircraft Accident Investigation.
