Five-day course on planning, conducting and reporting ISO 26262 functional safety assessments, audits and confirmation reviews, with 15 exercises evaluating safety plans, concepts, analyses, test plans and safety cases.
Builds the skills to conduct audits, assessments and confirmation reviews against the ISO 26262 functional safety requirements, as a stand-alone or integrated system, and to plan, conduct and report audit activities. The first part teaches participants to evaluate the work products of a safety programme: the safety plan, the flow-down from safety goals to functional, technical, hardware and software safety requirements and concepts, safety mechanisms, decomposition and dependent failure analysis, safety analyses and metrics (hardware and software DFMEA, FMEDA, fault tree analysis), verification test plans, the safety case and release to production, manufacturing and field control measures, and distributed interface agreements. The second part covers the management of reviews, audits and assessments, confirmation measures and supplier audits, and the audit itself: the audit programme, planning and preparation, conducting the audit, writing nonconformity statements, the closing meeting, the report and corrective action. Presentations are combined with hands-on work, and the course ends with an exam.
