Overview

As the pressure to quickly deliver cost-effective and better products increases, safety in industrial plants can become an area of compromise.

The SIT Specialist Certificate in Process Safety is designed to help individuals, who are tasked with safety responsibilities, gain the engineering and management expertise to safely operate a plant in Singapore.

The modules (in the form of workshops) provide a disciplined framework for managing the integrity of hazardous operating systems and processes. By applying good design principles, engineering and operating practices, individuals can prevent and control incidents that lead to toxic exposure, fires or explosions.

The modules can be taken individually or stack towards a Specialist Certificate in Process Safety.
