International in cooperation with TVC Functional Safety Services are pleased to recommend the TÜV Rheinland Functional Safety Program for Safety Instrumented Systems trainings, focused on functional safety aspects for the process, oil & gas, and chemical industries according to IEC 61508 and IEC 61511.
Course objectives
The main objective is to provide all engineers involved in safety instrumented systems with elementary and necessary knowledge about functional safety, based on the leading international functional safety standards IEC 61508 and IEC 61511. A second objective is to give anybody attending the course the opportunity to have his or her functional safety competency confirmed by the TÜV Rheinland upon successfully passing the exam.

- That a procedure shall be in place to manage competence of all those involved in the SIS life cycle.
