Three Short Courses Focus On Safety/Security, Human Factors,
And Accident Investigation
The Professional Programs Office of
the College of Aviation at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University
will host three five-day classroom courses in May 2010 at the
university's Daytona Beach campus that will cover the latest topics
in safety, security, human factors, and accident
investigation.
Participants may elect to take a course independently or complete
all three courses to receive a Certificate of Management in
Aviation Safety. Participants will receive Continuing Education
Units (CEUs) for each course successfully completed.
OSHA and Aviation Ground Safety for Managers (CASE Course )May
3-7, 2010
This course is designed to provide the participant with working
knowledge of OSHA's General Industry Safety and Health standards.
In addition, participants will gain fundamental working knowledge
of an aviation ground safety program, concentrating on how
incidents/accidents can be prevented and the expense of avoidable
incidents/accidents in terms of lives and dollars lost.
Participants will become familiar with current OSHA violations and
issues in aviation, acquire skills in the design and implementation
of a ground safety program, and engage in hands-on exercises based
on real-world experiences to aid them in the application of
principles covered in the course. Participants will receive the
OSHA 30-Hour General Industry Safety & Health training card
shortly after completion of the course.
Aviation Safety Management Systems

This course will provide an overview of the history, philosophy,
and quality-management foundation of Safety Management Systems
(SMS). The topics are designed to provide the participant with
working knowledge of an aviation safety program and effective
accident-prevention methods. The participant will review problems
facing today's aviation safety program manager and learn how to
deal with basic safety and risk management concepts, as well as
analyze program elements typically found in aviation safety
programs. Participants will take part in classroom exercises
based on real-world experiences to learn how to use additional
tools and techniques to promote safety management in their
organization. Course topics include SMS overview, building a safety
program, safety analysis techniques, aviation security, and
regulatory safety/health programs.
Accident Investigation and Management (CASE Course) May 17-21,

This course is designed to teach the participant the fundamentals
required to conduct or manage an aircraft mishap/accident
investigation. The participant will review the investigation
sequence from the preplanning stage through the general survey and
specific analysis of a mishap/accident, culminating with the
determination of contributing factors and probable cause/s. Crash
laboratory exercises and case examples will help the participant
identify, collect, and analyze data in the process of determining
probable cause/s. The participant will also discover solutions to
problems faced during aircraft mishap/accident investigations.
