Learning Outcomes

Participants will gain a thorough understanding of Rail Safety Management Systems (RSMS) and their role in ensuring the safety, reliability, and efficiency of rail operations. The course will equip learners with the skills to design, implement, and evaluate RSMS, ensuring compliance with industry standards and regulations. By the end of the course, participants will be able to identify risks, develop mitigation strategies, and foster a culture of safety within rail transport operations.

Focus Points

This course focuses on key areas such as risk assessment in rail operations, development and implementation of safety management plans, and compliance with international and national rail safety standards. Participants will explore incident investigation techniques, emergency response planning, and performance monitoring of RSMS. Emphasis will also be placed on stakeholder engagement, data analysis, and integrating safety into operational decision-making processes.

Participants

The course is designed for rail industry professionals, including safety managers, operations supervisors, and risk management personnel. It is also suitable for government regulators, consultants, and those transitioning into rail safety roles. While prior experience in transportation safety or engineering is beneficial, the course is accessible to individuals with a keen interest in rail safety and a basic understanding of rail operations.
