Mastering Systems Human Factors and Ergonomics: A Methods Masterclass Series
Want to put Human Factors and Ergonomics (HFE) and systems thinking into practice in your work? Are you interested in learning key systems HFE methods?
Traditional strategies for managing safety and improving work design are reaching the limits of their effectiveness. In order to achieve organisational objectives, we must acknowledge that outcomes in complex systems (e.g., safety, performance, wellbeing) emerge from the interactions between component parts. However, traditional methods, tools and techniques focus on analysing parts in isolation, rather than on understanding interactions between humans, technologies and work environments within a holistic context. Systems HFE methods enable organisations to understand and optimise these interactions to transform safety, performance and wellbeing.
We are offering a series of Masterclasses that will provide you with guidance and support to learn contemporary systems HFE methods. Join our internationally recognised expert facilitators to take a closer look at how systems HFE methods can positively impact safety and efficiency in your workplace. Whether you work in industry, for a government department or regulator, run a consultancy, or are studying in the areas of HFE and safety science, these methods will help you in your efforts to improve functioning and performance across complex systems in a range of domains and contexts (e.g., transport, healthcare, mining, defence, WHS, consumer design).
You will come away from each Masterclass with an understanding of the theoretical basis of the method, practical skills in applying the method, and a suite of guidance materials to assist you in your future applications.
Register for two Masterclasses to also receive a free copy of the Handbook of Systems Thinking Methods, valued at $252. The handbook provides practical guidance on 13 contemporary systems HFE methods including risk assessment, systems analysis and design, accident analysis, and computational modelling methods.
With four on offer, the hardest decision will be which Masterclasses to attend!
