Introduction to HAZOP
This introductory HAZOP (Hazard and Operability) training course is designed to equip engineers, safety professionals, and operations staff with a solid understanding of HAZOP studies and their vital role in process safety. Delivered by industry experts and accredited by IChemE, the course explains the principles, purpose, and structure of a HAZOP, giving you the knowledge needed to participate effectively in risk assessments.
