Engineering Management Systems: A Comprehensive Guide to Safety and Risk Management for Professional Engineers

This comprehensive course is designed to equip professional engineers with a thorough understanding of engineering management systems, with a focus on safety and risk management. It explores the critical role that these systems play in governing engineering practices, including incident management, root cause investigation, and the use of big data and AI for incident analysis.
The course highlights the importance of proper selection of fittings and Inherently Safer Design (ISD) in eliminating or reducing hazards and risks at the design stage. It also addresses organizational motivations for change and how management systems can protect owners from risks associated with third-party engineering firms’ performance.
