How the Online Root Cause Analysis Training Course Works

Your RCA training uses original PowerPoint slides with slide notes that you get to keep. You also get a course book with information on the assignments. The learning process involves viewing the slides, read the notes and working with a human Tutor. Your Tutor coaches and helps you by answering your questions, assisting with your research, assessing your assignments and providing feedback. This interaction and communication is part of the teaching process employed in the course. Consultation with your Tutor is mostly done by emails. This has been effective for many years. But students can use Skype or telephone if that becomes necessary.

The course is self-paced and you set your own schedule to do the work needed to complete the training course and gain a certificate. We recommend you finish each module within two months. Definitely aim to do the whole course within 6 months so you can put your new knowledge to work and start boosting your career prospects. You tackle a module at a time until its assignments are completed and accepted by your Tutor. Once you pass the first Module you then purchase the next module and continue with learning more best practice RCA training in Module 2.

You do each root cause analysis training module one at a time, including its assignments, until each module is complete. As you do a module you send the assignments to your Tutor who reviews the submission and gives you feedback and advice on how to complete them well. After you successfully complete all assignments in all modules you receive your RCA training certificate.
