This instructor-led, live training in South Korea (online or onsite) is aimed at intermediate-level professionals who wish to develop a systematic approach to identifying, analyzing, and resolving problems using RCA methodologies.

• Understand essential concepts of RCA and continuous improvement cycles.

This program aims to shift the audit approach from a reactive "finding" mode to a proactive "prevention" strategy. By mastering Root Cause Analysis, the Internal Audit team can specifically target and eliminate recurring findings. This ensures that once a weakness is identified, the resulting recommendation offers a permanent solution, thereby protecting the company's operational efficiency and financial integrity.

Failing to implement structured RCA creates a high-risk environment:

• Financial Erosion: Unresolved root causes in financial processes lead to cumulative losses that increase over time.
• Resource Wastage: Auditors spend 40% more time re-auditing the same failed controls instead of focusing on new strategic risks.
• Diminished Authority: Repeatedly reporting the same issues weakens the Audit Division's influence with senior management and auditees.

Upon completing this training, participants will be equipped to:

• Grasp RCA methodologies and their significance within internal auditing.

• Utilize RCA tools such as the 5 Whys, Fishbone Diagram, and Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA).

• Embed RCA into the internal audit workflow to strengthen risk management.

This instructor-led, live training (online or onsite) is designed for intermediate-level safety professionals and operational managers seeking to improve their ability to investigate incidents, identify systemic weaknesses, and develop effective corrective and preventive actions.
