Description:
This course focuses on the engineering requirements for the specification, design, analysis, and justification of safety instrumented systems for the process industries. Students will learn how to determine safety integrity levels and evaluate whether proposed or existing systems meet the performance and documentation requirements defined in the ISA 84 (IEC61511) standard.

"The lab sessions were very helpful. I was very pleased with the course. More so than any other technical course I have been to. I feel that I really learned something." - Shawn Coughlan

This course is required for the ISA84 Safety Instrumented Systems Certificate Programs. You can register for the course only or for the certificate program which includes course and exam. Those who successfully complete this course and pass the exam receive the designation of ISA84 SIS Fundamentals Specialist.
