Overview

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

The Graduate Certificate in Process Safety Operations (GCert PSO) is designed to help learners, who are tasked with safety responsibilities, gain the engineering and management expertise to safely operate a plant in Singapore.

The modules provide a disciplined framework for managing the integrity of hazardous operating systems and processes. By applying good engineering and operating practices, learners can prevent and control incidents that lead to toxic exposure, fires or explosions.

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