SOG Academy announces a comprehensive certification program in risk management, specially tailored for engineering students in India. This program, titled “Risk Management: Integrating Safety, Technology, and Sustainability,” merges advanced instruction with practical knowledge. It prepares students to address the modern-day challenges in engineering, emphasizing safety, technological applications, and environmental sustainability.
The certification spans 64 instructional hours across eight meticulously developed courses. Each course, offering 8 hours of in-depth analysis, is designed to impart actionable risk management skills and knowledge. Students can either pursue the full certification for a holistic skill set or select specific courses to meet their individual career goals.
Course Offerings:
1. Process Safety Management (PSM): Students will enhance their skills in hazard analysis, implement effective preventive strategies, and assess risk metrics, drawing valuable insights from an extensive database of real-world industrial incidents.
2. Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams (P&ID): Provides essential skills in developing and interpreting P&IDs, critical for the design and troubleshooting of engineering systems. This course sharpens students’ ability to visualize complex process flows and optimize system operations, equipping them with essential skills for effective engineering solutions.
3. Hazard Identification (HAZID): Supplies students with strategies and tools to recognize and analyze potential hazards in engineering projects. This foundational course is crucial for developing preventive safety measures.
4. Hazards and Operability Analysis (HAZOP): Introduces the methodology for conducting HAZOP studies, a systematic approach to identifying potential hazards and operational issues in process design. Students learn to recommend modifications to mitigate risks.
5. Barrier Risk Management Using Bow-Tie Analysis: Explains the Bow-Tie method for risk analysis, focusing on creating effective safety barriers. This course teaches how to connect causes of threats to their potential impacts, outlining prevention and mitigation strategies.
6. Introduction to Onshore/Offshore Facilities: Addresses the unique safety challenges and risk management strategies pertinent to onshore and offshore facilities. Students can explore safety standards, environmental concerns, and operational risks specific to these environments.
7. As Low as Reasonably Practicable (ALARP): Guides on making safety decisions and designing systems that achieve risk levels “As Low as Reasonably Practicable” (ALARP). This course emphasizes cost-effective safety enhancements in engineering projects.
8. Software and Technology for Risk Management: Demonstrates the use of specialized engineering software tools to analyze safety risks and operational efficiencies. Students gain hands-on experience with software that supports safety analysis and decision-making processes.
