    What Is Root Cause Analysis and Why It MattersA Skill Every Quality Team Needs

    Root Cause Analysis (RCA) is a structured, systematic approach to problem solving that finds the fundamental underlying cause of a defect, failure or incident instead of treating the symptom. This root cause analysis training in Brazil equips professionals with a complete RCA toolkit so corrective actions prevent problems from ever recurring. Delivered by experienced instructors, the one-day programme builds practical capability in the 5 Whys, the Fishbone (Ishikawa) diagram, Fault Tree Analysis, FMEA and the 8D problem-solving method. You learn how to define a problem precisely, gather evidence, select the right tool for each situation, and verify that corrective actions actually work. RCA sits at the heart of ISO 9001:2015 corrective action (Clause 10.2), the Six Sigma DMAIC Analyse phase and Lean operations, making it valuable across Brazilian manufacturing, automotive, mining, oil and gas, and healthcare. Whether you investigate defects, safety incidents or service failures, this training helps you stop firefighting and start fixing causes with Invensis Learning.

    The RCA Tools You Will MasterA Complete Problem-Solving Toolkit

    In this root cause analysis training you will learn to apply every core RCA tool to real problems, from defining the issue through to verifying that corrective actions work. Each skill below maps to a hands-on part of the one-day programme.

    Define Problems and Collect Evidence

    Write precise, factual problem statements and use Is/Is Not analysis, timelines and event mapping to gather the evidence an investigation needs before jumping to conclusions.

    Apply the 5 Whys Technique

    Drill from symptom to root cause with structured questioning, recognise when an investigation has stopped too early, and avoid blame statements that hide systemic causes.

    Build Fishbone (Ishikawa) Diagrams

    Facilitate cause-and-effect workshops across the 6M categories, organise potential causes visually, and drill each branch to uncover the most likely root causes.

    Run Fault Tree Analysis

    Use top-down deductive analysis with AND and OR logic gates to map every failure pathway to an undesired event, ideal for safety-critical and complex incidents.

    Use FMEA in Root Cause Analysis

    Apply Failure Mode and Effects Analysis proactively and retrospectively, and use the Risk Priority Number to prioritise the corrective actions that matter most.

    Lead 8D Problem Solving

    Work through all eight disciplines, from team formation and interim containment to root cause, permanent corrective action, prevention and closure, the manufacturing standard for corrective action.

    Develop and Verify Corrective Actions

    Design corrective actions that address the verified root cause, distinguish verification from validation, and confirm that recurrence has actually been prevented.

    Support ISO 9001 and CAPA Compliance

    Connect RCA to ISO 9001:2015 Clause 10.2 corrective action and to CAPA in regulated industries, building the documented investigation auditors expect.

    Carlos Almeida

    Quality Engineer

    0/0

    Clear, Practical and Hands-On

    "I came in knowing the theory but not how to apply it. The worked examples and exercises gave me the confidence to lead a Fault Tree Analysis on a real incident at work the following week."

    Fernanda Oliveira

    Continuous Improvement Analyst

    0/0

    A Must for Anyone in Quality

    "The trainer explained when to use each tool instead of forcing one method on every problem. Writing a proper problem statement before jumping in was a genuine mindset shift for me."

    Rafael Souza

    Production Supervisor

    0/0

    Standardised Problem Solving Across Our Plants

    "We ran this as onsite training for our quality and manufacturing teams. Everyone now speaks the same 8D language, and our corrective actions for customer complaints are far more rigorous and audit-ready."

    General

    What is root cause analysis training?

    Root cause analysis training is a practical, non-certification course that teaches you to find the fundamental cause of a problem rather than treating the symptom. Over one day you learn a full toolkit, including the 5 Whys, Fishbone diagram, Fault Tree Analysis, FMEA and the 8D method, and how to apply each one.

    Is root cause analysis training worth it?

    Yes. RCA is one of the most transferable skills in industry, cutting the cost of recurring defects, rework and incidents. Employers across Brazilian manufacturing, mining, oil and gas, food and pharma value professionals who can run a disciplined investigation and make fixes stick.

    Who should attend this RCA training?

    The training suits quality engineers and managers, production supervisors, operations and continuous improvement professionals, health and safety managers, IT and maintenance staff, and anyone in Brazil responsible for investigating problems and preventing them from recurring.

    Do I need prior experience or quality knowledge?

    No. There are no prerequisites. Some familiarity with quality or process improvement helps, but the course introduces RCA principles and tools from first principles, so beginners and experienced practitioners both benefit.

    What payment options are available?

    We accept major credit and debit cards and bank transfers, and offer flexible options on selected plans. Speak with a learning advisor to choose the option that suits you.

    Assessment

    How is learning assessed during the course?

    There is no formal assessment or test. Learning is reinforced through hands-on RCA exercises, case study investigations and team discussion, so you practise each tool on realistic problems throughout the programme.

    Do I receive a certificate after the training?

    Yes. You receive a course completion record from Invensis Learning once you finish the one-day programme. This is a skills training course, so there is no external credential; the value is a practical RCA toolkit you can use immediately.

    What will I be able to do after the training?

    After the course you can write a precise problem statement, run a 5 Whys and Fishbone investigation, apply Fault Tree Analysis and FMEA, complete an 8D report, and develop and verify corrective actions that prevent recurrence.

    Are the RCA skills recognised across industries?

    Yes. Root cause analysis is applied in every sector where problems must be prevented, from automotive and mining to food, pharma, healthcare and IT. The tools you learn transfer directly between industries and roles.

    How much hands-on practice is included?

    Practice runs throughout the day. You complete Is/Is Not problem definition, a 5 Whys investigation, a Fishbone workshop, an 8D report and corrective-action planning on realistic scenarios, so you leave able to apply the tools at work.

    Course Content

    What topics does the RCA training cover?

    The course covers RCA principles and problem types, problem definition and data collection, the 5 Whys, the Fishbone diagram and advanced tools such as Fault Tree Analysis and FMEA, the 8D method, and corrective action, verification and building an RCA culture.

    Which RCA tools will I learn?

    You learn five core tools and when to use each: the 5 Whys for simple problems, the Fishbone diagram for multi-cause problems, Fault Tree Analysis for safety-critical events, FMEA for risk prioritisation, and 8D for team-based corrective action.

    How does RCA relate to ISO 9001 and Six Sigma?

    RCA underpins ISO 9001:2015 corrective action (Clause 10.2) and forms the core of the Six Sigma DMAIC Analyse phase. The training shows how to meet these requirements with a structured, documented investigation.

    What is the 8D problem-solving method?

    8D (Eight Disciplines) is a structured, team-based approach to corrective action widely used in automotive and manufacturing. It runs from team formation and containment through root cause and permanent corrective action to prevention and closure.

    How long is the course and what materials are provided?

    The programme runs for one day (eight hours) and includes structured courseware, worked examples, templates and case studies. You practise each RCA tool on realistic problems throughout the session.

    Can beginners follow the course content?

    Yes. The content is taught from first principles, so no prior RCA experience is needed. Beginners gain a complete toolkit, while experienced practitioners deepen and structure what they already do.
