Description

Across the world current legal local and international statutes on product integrity must be observed and over and above this, the justifiable safety expectations of the general public must be met.

If there were to be “unsafe” products in the market, or whose conformity to legal requirements is questionable, those responsible are obliged to initiate the necessary actions.

In order to be aware of and to understand the many demands of the role of product safety representative, comprehensive information and qualification is necessary.

This training will give you the expertise you need to perform the daily work of a PSCR in a more professional and targeted manner. The program covers the central themes of product integrity and over-the-air (OTA) software updates, and expands your competence in these fields.
