    IEC 61508 Certification Training

    Safety systems play a majorly important role in many industries worldwide. Yet over 90% of the safety functions worldwide are not SIL compliant.

    This training course teaches you how IEC 61508 applies functional safety to safety-related systems. You can participate in the associated exam and earn a knowledge certificate with this newly acquired knowledge.

    If you want to learn how to make safety functions functionally safe, and help industries around the world implement safety functions correctly, then take action today and signup for our upcoming course. Become part of the elite group of professionals that know how to achieve SIL-compliant safety-related systems.

    What you will learn

    • What functional safety means according to IEC 61508.
    • How functional safety applies to your job.
    • How functional safety applies to your products and services.
    • Why functional safety exists in the first place.
    • That FSM is at the basis of all safety functions and systems.
    • The role of measures to avoid and control failures.
    • How end users decide what safety functions they need and how much SIL they must have.
    • The four documents you need to plan and start building safety functions.
    • The content of a safety requirements specification (SRS).
    • Important hardware concepts like Type, Voting, HFT, SFF, etc.
    • The rules for selecting equipment and building architectures.
    • The difference between diagnostic tests and proof tests and why it is important.
    • What PFD means and how to calculate PFD for a safety function.
    • The different PFD modelling techniques.
    • How to deal with software and create application logic.
    • Three types of software.
    • What end users need to do to operate, maintain and repair safety functions.

    Requirements

    • Bring an open mind.
    • Willing less to learn ...
    • Basic knowledge of functional safety is an advantage but not necessary.
    • Time to study for the exam.

    This course includes

    • Manual in PDF format to make notes
    • 14 exercises
    • Videos case studies
    • Valuable discussions with your trainer and peers
    • Knowledge certificate after passing the exam
    • Optional TUV SUD certificate (extra cost apply)

    Get Your New Knowledge Certified as FS Specialist, FS Engineer or FS Professional

    All courses and workshops at Risknowlogy come with an optional exam and knowledge certification. At the end of this training, you can participate in an exam. If you pass the exam, you can get your knowledge certified.

    This is how it works:

    • Follow the training in full
    • Fill out the form(s)
    • Optional TUV certificate (extra) cost apply
    • Pass the exam, you get:
      • Functional Safety Engineer (TUV) certificate for those that obtain 60% or higher on the exam
      • Functional Safety Professional (TUV) certificate for those that obtain 75% or higher on the exam
      • Functional Safety Specialist certificate for those that obtain 60% or higher on the exam
      • Functional Safety Specialist certificate with distinction for those that obtain 85% or higher on the exam

    You can enroll today, and start the Specialist journey.

    FS Expert or FS Master Certification

    This option is outside the scope of this course. It is a higher-level certification and focuses on practical experience you have with functional safety accoring to IEC 61508. With this course, you can get a combo deal if you want to include the certification of your practical experience as well. If you do not have practical experience yet we will help you. To achieve this certification, you need to:

    • Submit 2 case studies using our templates. You get the templates as part of this course.
    • Submit two references.
    • Interview.
    • The certification title depends on the number of hours you can prove. Based on this course, you can achieve Professional. But if you have enough hours also Expert or Master.

    Course description

    The main objective of this course is to allow specialists involved in safety-related systems to learn the fundamentals of functional safety and the requirements of the functional safety standard IEC 61508. A second objective is to give anybody attending the course the opportunity to certify their knowledge through an exam.

    Functional safety is a knowledge-based profession. Do you want to be a functional safety specialist? Do you want to be certified? Want to know if you learn something from this course? Answer these questions for yourself:

    • Do you know why a proof test cannot improve the SFF?
    • Do you know that there are 2 SILs and 2 Risk Reduction Factors for each safety function?
    • Do you know why most companies fail at functional safety?
    • Do you know how many requirements a safety function needs to fulfil to claim SIL?
    • Do you know why a PFD is the least essential SIL requirement?
    • Do you know the five core concepts of functional safety management?
    • Do you know who is responsible for the safety requirements specification?

    If you know the answers to the above questions, congratulations, you are a Functional Safety Expert. If not, this course is for you.
