Advance Your Career by becoming a functional safety engineer

Our beginner Functional Safety Engineer for ISO 13849 & IEC 62061 training course will improve your knowledge of functional safety, focusing on the ISO 13849 & IEC 62061 standards. This 3-day course is ideal for UK professionals such as managers, technicians, design engineers or anyone involved in managing or designing safety-related control systems in machinery. You also have the chance to apply for a globally accepted functional safety engineer certificate with lifetime validity at engineer level.

✔ Gain awareness of key parts of the standards (EN IEC 62061 and EN ISO 13849-1), including SIL determination, performance levels, diagnostic coverage and common cause failures, etc, for safety circuit designs
✔ Learn the differences between EN IEC 62061 and EN ISO 13849-1 and the concepts that these standards promote
✔ Understand requirements of the standards to deal with avoidance of systematic errors
✔ Learn about architectures of safety-related controls, and how these architectures relate to practical applications

Starting with a detailed introduction to functional safety, you’ll then learn about the importance of hazard & risk analysis. As the course progresses, we'll explore the key parts of the standards (EN IEC 62061 and EN ISO 13849-1), including safety integrity level (SIL) determination, performance levels, diagnostic coverage, and common cause failures etc, for safety circuit designs.

You’ll gain an understanding of some of the differences between EN IEC 62061 and EN ISO 13849-1 and the concepts which these standards promote. We look at the requirements of the standards to deal with the avoidance of systematic errors. You’ll discover the architectures of safety-related controls and how these architectures relate to practical applications. Component performance and reliability are important, so you’ll learn how the necessary data can be derived from readily available information.

You’ll also learn about the importance of ensuring that any software is sufficiently free from systematic errors, and the importance of verification and validation. The interactive format, complete with practical exercises, finishes with a half-day exam to consolidate your learning.

Upon completion, you'll receive a globally recognised TÜV SÜD certificate. If you pass the exam, you’re eligible to apply for registration as a Functional Safety Engineer in the TÜV SÜD Functional Safety Certification Program, if you meet the other requirements (see Prerequisites section).

What is the difference between our functional safety engineer and functional safety professional training courses?

This course focuses on machine builders and system integrators handling complete machine function integration, while our functional safety professional training course is more geared towards manufacturing systems and devices for functional safety in the machinery sector.

If this course doesn't suit your needs, our functional safety professional training course may be more suitable.
