System Theoretic Process Analysis (STPA)

Course Dates

Explore our one-day course on system-theoretic process analysis (STPA) with expert-led sessions and hands-on insights to help you understand and analyze the safety of large, interactive systems.

To identify safety risks in complex systems, such as advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), aviation, industrial automation, and medical devices, a system-theoretic process analysis (STPA) provides a proactive hazard analysis methodology. This methodology addresses the safety of the entire system by governing and controlling interactions among components.
 

Key Takeaways

This course is based on SAE standards J3307 and J3187 for recommended evaluation methods. It covers:

  • Introduction to STPA
  • Theoretical foundation of STPA
  • STPA evaluation prerequisites
  • STPA method overview
  • STPA steps:
    1. Defining the purpose and scope of the analysis
    2. Modeling of the control structure
    3. Identification of unsafe control actions
    4. Identification of causal scenarios
  • STPA tools
  • Practical STPA session with a selected example:
    • Autonomous machine (AM) transports goods within an autonomous operating zone (AOZ; machinery)
    • Lane centering assistance system (automotive)
    • Highway pilot (automotive)
    • A system for the asymmetric warfare of a surface ship (marine)

Target Audience

Engineers who are familiar with the design of safety-relevant electronic systems, including safety, systems, hardware, software and test engineers.

Prerequisites

Training participants should have a general understanding of hardware and software architecture and experience working with safety-relevant systems.

Basic knowledge of other safety analysis methods, such as failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA) or fault tree analysis (FTA), and a general knowledge of relevant safety standards (e.g., IEC 61508, MIL-STD 882, ISO 26262) will be beneficial but is not mandatory.

Examination

None

Further Information

For online training, all materials are offered digitally. Copies of any relevant standards must be provided by the learner.

Cancellation Policy

Cancellation Policy

Contractual cancellation right

The registration can be cancelled free of charge 30 days before the training date, after which the following rules apply: 

  • 30 days – 14 days before the start of the training: 50% of the participation fee
  • 14 days or less before the start of the training: 100% of the participation fee
  • This shall not apply when a substitute attendee is named. This is possible until the registration at the beginning of the event.

The relevant cut-off date for the calculation of the cancellation period is the first training day of a bindingly booked training.

The cancellation must be declared in writing and sent by email to the training provider.

Naming substitutes

The participant may, after receiving the registration confirmation, name a substitute in writing prior to the beginning of the seminar.

This change of reservation is free of charge; seminars spanning several days may be transferred only in their entirety, i.e. attended by one substitute.

Date cancellations and date changes

The training provider has the right to change the location of events and/or specify a different date as a substitute. The training provider also reserves the right to cancel dates for organizational reasons (e.g. number of participants too low, illness of the speaker at short notice).

The training provider will notify the participant of the cancellation and of the reason with-out undue delay and will attempt to change the participant's reservation, provided that he agrees to a different date or event location. Otherwise, the full amount of any already paid attendance fee will be refunded in the case of a cancellation; no further claims exist, particularly no refund of travel and/or accommodation cost.
