Incident Analysis BFA / BSCAT using IncidentXP

Learn to apply Barrier Based (or in other words Control Based) Incident Analysis using the BFA (Barrier Failure Analysis) or BSCAT (Barrier-based Systematic Causation Analysis Technique).

Training goals

  • Set up a structured approach of working with BFA/BSCAT
  • Analyze (unwanted) outcomes as Near-misses, Accidents, and Incidents
  • Create a valid BFA incident analysis diagram
  • Identify which barriers failed during an incident
  • Describe how a barrier failed
  • Generate feasible recommendations
  • Relate to risk and management systems
  • Facilitate learning from incidents

Here's what participants said

"This course generally provides good guidance for incidents. Not only for incident investigators, but also how the rest of the organization should deal with this topic."

Hidde Van Nieuwkoop - HHSK

Description

During this course, participants will learn how to analyse incidents using the BFA (Barrier Failure Analysis) or BSCAT (Barrier-based Systematic Causation Analysis Technique) method. You will hone your incident analysis skills through practical, hands-on exercises and games, related to realistic case studies.
Both method and software are put into practice as incidents are visualized and lessons learned distilled into concise reports with practicable recommendations.
