About Training
Tripod Beta is a robust and powerful tool for incident investigation, however requires a high level of understanding and competence to be used effectively.
Our Tripod Beta course is developed to demonstrate you have a solid, ingrained, understanding of the Tripod Beta methodology, demonstrated through the completion of a controlled knowledge assessment.
Course Design Focuses on Structural Flaws
This course focuses on ‘reactive’ method for incident analysis leading to proactive process control measures. It does not just focus on the immediate, human, causes of the incident, but identifies the structural flaws that allowed the incident in question to occur.
Includes Specific Certification
Knowledge Assessment will be given at the last day, so you able to get the a certification from accreditation centre. Full accreditation process will be introducing by the course instructor as well.
You will also learn the investigation framework clarifies unknowns and uncertainties and thus leads to insights. Underlying causes are identified and lead to well considered conclusions and management actions, strengthening the organization’s sustainability as well as business andsafety performance.
