    I Finally Get to the Real Root Cause

    "The 8D and 5 Whys sessions changed how I run investigations. I used to stop at the obvious cause; now I reach the systemic one and my corrective actions actually hold. I applied it to a recurring line defect the week I got back."

    Practical Tools I Use Every Week

    "Very practical and hands-on. The Fishbone workshop and Is / Is Not exercise gave me a clear way to lead my team through a problem instead of guessing. The trainer used real scenarios, not just theory."

    Root Cause Analysis

    Frequently Asked QuestionsHere's everything you may ask...

    Root cause analysis training is a practical, one-day programme that teaches you how to investigate problems, find their true underlying causes, and put corrective actions in place that prevent recurrence. It covers structured tools including the 5 Whys, Fishbone diagram, Fault Tree Analysis, FMEA and the 8D method.

    General

    What is root cause analysis (RCA) training?

    Root cause analysis training is a practical, one-day programme that teaches you how to investigate problems, find their true underlying causes, and put corrective actions in place that prevent recurrence. It covers structured tools including the 5 Whys, Fishbone diagram, Fault Tree Analysis, FMEA and the 8D method.

    Who should attend RCA training in Norway?

    The course suits quality engineers and managers, production supervisors, operations and HSE professionals, reliability engineers, and anyone responsible for investigating problems or managing corrective action. It is widely relevant across Norway's oil and gas, seafood, metals, chemicals and manufacturing sectors.

    Is RCA training worth it for my career?

    Yes. Structured problem-solving is a sought-after, transferable skill across Norwegian industry, and facilitators who can run a 5 Whys, Fishbone or 8D investigation are relatively scarce. It supports roles from quality engineer to operations and HSE manager, where it strengthens day-to-day performance and credibility.

    Do I need prior quality or Six Sigma experience?

    No. The course has no formal prerequisites and introduces RCA from first principles. Some familiarity with quality or process improvement is helpful but not required, so beginners and experienced practitioners can both benefit.

    Which industries in Norway use root cause analysis most?

    RCA is used heavily in oil and gas and offshore energy, seafood and aquaculture, metals and chemicals, maritime, manufacturing, and regulated medical device and pharmaceutical production. Anywhere problems, defects or incidents must be prevented from recurring, RCA is applied.

    Pricing

    How much does RCA training cost in Norway?

    Pricing varies by delivery mode, group size and format, so a current quote is available on request in Norwegian kroner. Live virtual, classroom and corporate onsite options are each priced differently. Request a quote and a learning advisor will confirm the fee for your preferred format.

    What is included in the course fee?

    The fee typically includes instructor-led training across all six RCA modules, hands-on exercises and case studies, courseware and reference materials, and a course completion record from Invensis Learning. Confirm the exact inclusions for your chosen format when you request a quote.

    Do you offer group or corporate discounts?

    Yes. We offer corporate and group training with tailored schedules and volume-based pricing for teams, sites and departments. It is ideal for quality, operations and HSE groups who want to learn one shared method. Contact us for a group quote.

    How do I pay and are instalments available?

    We accept major credit and debit cards and bank transfer, and instalment options are available on selected plans. Speak with a learning advisor to choose the payment option that suits you.

    Is a completion record included in the price?

    Yes. On finishing the one-day programme you receive a course completion record from Invensis Learning at no extra cost. This is a skills training course, so there is no separate examination or awarding-body fee to pay.

    Assessment

    Is there an exam for RCA training?

    No. This is a practical skills training course with no examination. Your learning is reinforced through hands-on tool exercises, case study investigations and team discussion throughout the day, rather than a formal test.

    Do I receive anything after completing the course?

    Yes. You receive a course completion record from Invensis Learning once you finish the one-day programme. It recognises your participation and the practical RCA toolkit you have built.

    Is this a formal certification course?

    No. Root cause analysis training is a non-certification skills course focused on practical capability rather than a credential or awarding body. You leave able to apply the tools at work immediately, and the skills do not expire.

    How is learning assessed during the training?

    Learning is assessed informally through hands-on activities: an Is / Is Not problem-definition exercise, a 5 Whys investigation, a Fishbone workshop, and completion of an 8D report for a realistic scenario. These let you apply each tool under trainer guidance.

    Will I be able to apply RCA at work straight away?

    Yes. The course is built around realistic problem scenarios, so you can use the tools from your first day back. Many learners apply the 5 Whys, Fishbone or 8D to a live problem within their first week.

    Course Content

    What tools and methods does the RCA course cover?

    The course covers problem definition and Is / Is Not analysis, the 5 Whys, the Fishbone (Ishikawa) diagram, Fault Tree Analysis, FMEA in the RCA context, the 8D method, and corrective action development and verification. You also learn when to select each tool by problem complexity and severity.

    How long is the RCA training?

    The course runs for one day (eight hours), covering all six RCA modules with concept explanations, worked examples and hands-on exercises. It can also be arranged as two half-day sessions to suit team schedules.

    Are there hands-on exercises and case studies?

    Yes. Hands-on RCA exercises and case study investigations run throughout the day, including problem definition, a 5 Whys investigation, a Fishbone workshop and an 8D report. Corporate sessions can use your organisation's own real problems.

    Does the course cover ISO 9001 and CAPA?

    Yes. The training shows how RCA supports ISO 9001:2015 Clause 10.2 corrective action and provides the investigative backbone of a compliant CAPA process. This is directly relevant to regulated Norwegian sectors such as medical devices, pharmaceuticals and food.

    Can beginners take this course?

    Yes. The course introduces every tool from first principles, so no prior RCA or quality experience is needed. It is equally useful for newcomers and for experienced professionals who want to broaden their toolkit beyond the 5 Whys and Fishbone.
