02 September 2024

ASTUTIS, IN collaboration with legal training experts Bond Solon, has launched the Certified Serious and Major Accident Investigator course, awarded by the International Compliance Association (ICA).

The ground-breaking course is designed specifically for health and safety professionals who seek to elevate their serious and major accident investigative skills to an advanced and practical level.

The course offers training that equips participants with the knowledge and skills to conduct thorough and effective investigations. The course covers essential topics such as root cause analysis, evidence collection, interview techniques, and legal considerations, ensuring that investigators can uncover the true causes of serious and major workplace accidents, including fatalities and implement strategies to prevent future incidents.

Steve Terry, managing director of Astutis, expressed his enthusiasm for the new course: "We are delighted to partner with Bond Solon to offer this advanced practitioner course. Our collaboration brings together the best of both worlds—Astutis' expertise in health and safety and Bond Solon's in legal training. Last year 561,000 working people sustained an injury at work, and as many as 33,000 resulted in litigation. This course is a game-changer for health and safety professionals who are committed to excellence in their field extending to those who wish to enhance their courtroom skills."

Piers Lawson, managing director of Bond Solon, added: "Our partnership with Astutis has enabled us to develop a course that meets the highest standards of investigative practice specifically for health and safety professionals. We are confident that this training will empower professionals to carry out serious and major incident investigations that are not only thorough but also legally robust. The skills and knowledge gained from this course will be invaluable in improving workplace safety and compliance."

The course is structured to provide a blend of theoretical knowledge and practical application, ensuring that learners can immediately apply what they have learned to real-world situations. Key features of the course include:

  • In-depth modules on advanced investigative techniques.
  • Practical exercises and case studies to reinforce learning.
  • Guidance on navigating legal and regulatory frameworks.
  • Training on effective report writing and presentation of findings.

Participants who complete the course and are successful in the assessment will receive a certification that is recognised by industry professionals and employers, enhancing their credibility and career prospects.
