Functional Safety for all road vehicles ISO 26262

About the course

Automotive Functional Safety CertificationBased on our long-standing practical experience in the field of Functional Safety we supply you with the necessary expertise for the updated ISO 26262 2nd Edition. Safety is one of the key issues in the development and now valid for all road vehicles like Trucks, Buses, Motorcycles and Automobiles. The sector specific needs of electrical and/or electronic (E/E) systems within road vehicles is explained in this standard. Our training modules are based on the practical use of this standard in your daily business to avoid increasing risk from systematic and random hardware failures.

Overview of ISO 26262 Training course modules

Course modules 1 to 4 introduce you to the processes necessary for your role in the safety life cycle (highly recommended for beginner). You are familiarized with the individual topics with the help of practical examples. All course modules 1 - 4 adopt a situation-based approach to the role of safety analyses and supporting processes and the resulting deliverables. Explanations of the necessary work products and appropriate treatment of the safety plan are naturally an integral part of all modules.
