Competence development in process safety

Competence in process safety is increasingly viewed as critical. We provide you with tailor-made programmes to develop the skills of your employees, because we know that open class alone does not drive competence.
In our competence development program, your employees are sensitized for process safety issues and made familiar with the topics. Through practical reinforcement, knowledge is embedded and maintained by follow-ups and access to content.
