EMSA, through the EMSA Academy, has developed and is delivering as from the 4th of March 2024 the first iteration of the Common Core Curriculum on Principles and Techniques for Safety Investigators.
According to EMSA, the Common Core Curriculum on Principles and Techniques for Safety Investigators is divided into four phases covering 12 units across 20 non-consecutive of weeks. It will be delivered in a blended mode with most of the learning activities on an asynchronous (non-real time) modality, allowing participants to complete the different units at their own pace and convenience.
However, at regular intervals, participants will have the opportunity to meet and interact online with the relevant EMSA subject matter experts, whilst a face-to-face session for five days at EMSA’s premises is also planned.
The Common Core Curriculum on Principles and Techniques for Safety Investigators is aimed at individuals who are newcomers, or who intend to become Maritime Safety Investigators for the competent authorities of their national administrations.
This learning service is designed and developed to provide participants with the necessary individual competencies for carrying out duties associated with accident and or safety investigations.
Furthermore, it aims to provide learners with the opportunity to develop the knowledge, skills and attitudes required to conduct the relevant investigations professionally, efficiently, and effectively and to the required standards’ benchmarked practice.
