Apply Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) Techniques

Course details

WSQ Apply Failure Mode Effect and Analysis (FMEA) Techniques is a jointly launched training programmeby SMF Centre for Corporate Learning (SMF CCL) and Singapore Workforce Development Agency (WDA). This is one of the Specialisation Electives that leads to the award of WSQ Statement of Attainment (SOA) in Generic Manufacturing Skills (Quality Systems).

This programme provides learner with generic knowledge and application skills in using Failure Mode & Effect Analysis (FMEA) techniques. It covers the principles and the method for the identification, implementation and follow up of FMEA methodology. This unit also provides learners the opportunity to apply, demonstrate and practise the skills learnt in applying the FMEA techniques.
