Event Tree Analysis (ETA)

Event Tree Analysis (ETA)

The Event Tree Analysis (ETA) program equips professionals with the knowledge and practical skills to analyze potential accident sequences and evaluate the effectiveness of safety barriers following an initiating event. Delivered by BGMC and CPD Certified, this course focuses on proactive risk assessment, consequence modeling, and decision-making to prevent minor incidents from escalating into major accidents.

Why Event Tree Analysis Matters ?

Emergency Response Procedures

This program blends analytical methods with real-world application:

1. Introduction to Event Tree Analysis

  • Purpose and principles of ETA

  • Difference between ETA and Fault Tree Analysis (FTA)

  • Proactive vs reactive risk assessment

  • Applications across safety, quality, and reliability

2. Initiating Events & System Response

  • Identifying initiating events

  • Understanding system responses and safety functions

  • Success and failure paths

  • Modeling conditional probabilities

3. Safety Barriers & Control Effectiveness

  • Preventive vs mitigative barriers

  • Human, technical, and organizational controls

  • Barrier independence and reliability

  • Evaluating control performance

4. Building & Interpreting Event Trees

  • Step-by-step construction of event trees

  • Qualitative and semi-quantitative analysis

  • Identifying high-risk pathways

  • Prioritizing risk reduction actions

5. Using ETA for Decision-Making

  • Supporting design and operational decisions

  • Linking ETA to HAZOP, Bow-Tie, and risk registers

  • Applying ETA to incident investigation and learning

Documenting and communicating results

This course is ideal for:

  • HSE & Process Safety Professionals

  • Risk Engineers & Safety Analysts
