Course structure

The course is designed to take delegates through the entire investigation process from the notification of an event through to the publication of an investigation report and recommendations. Through expertly facilitated and interactive lectures, workshops and practical exercises, delegates will get the opportunity to develop their skills as an investigator. There will be an investigation tutorial based around the University’s accident investigation laboratory and guest speakers from the aviation safety and investigation community including from airlines and State investigation agencies. A key element of the course is a simulated investigation of an occurrence which will involve the collection and analysis of evidence, including from witnesses, to deliver meaningful and effective safety recommendations / actions. An optional element to the course is to submit a written investigation report for personalised feedback.

Prior to the start of the course, delegates will also have access to important background material and recorded lectures on topics such as ICAO Annex 13 State investigations, Handling the News Media, and Cabin Safety Investigations.
