    What Is Root Cause Analysis?A Skill Every Quality Team Needs

    Root Cause Analysis Training in South Korea is a practical, one-day skills programme that teaches you how to investigate problems, defects and incidents and eliminate the underlying causes that make them recur. Root Cause Analysis (RCA) is a structured problem-solving discipline applied across quality management, Six Sigma, Lean, healthcare and IT service management, and it sits at the heart of ISO 9001:2015 corrective action under Clause 10.2 and the Six Sigma DMAIC Analyse phase. Across Korea's semiconductor, automotive, battery and electronics manufacturers, the ability to move beyond symptom-fixing to genuine root causes is a daily expectation. This training gives you a complete toolkit: the 5 Whys, the Fishbone (Ishikawa) diagram, Fault Tree Analysis (FTA), FMEA and the 8D methodology, reinforced with hands-on exercises and realistic case investigations throughout the day. Whether you work in quality, operations, engineering, EHS or IT service management, you leave able to define problems precisely, run structured investigations, and put corrective actions in place that actually hold. There is no examination; learning is proven through applied practice. Build the skill Korean employers value and start using it the next working day.

    RCA Tools You Will Learn to ApplyHands-On from Day One

    This programme turns root cause analysis from theory into a working skill. Across a hands-on day you practise each core tool on realistic problems, so by the end you can select the right method, run the investigation, and put corrective actions in place that last.

    Define Problems Precisely

    Write clear, factual problem statements and use Is / Is Not analysis and timeline mapping to scope an issue before you investigate, so the whole team works from the same defined problem.

    Master the 5 Whys

    Drill from symptom to root cause with iterative questioning, recognise when an investigation has stopped too early, and avoid blame endings that point at people rather than systems.

    Build Fishbone Diagrams

    Facilitate a team Fishbone (Ishikawa) workshop across the 6M cause categories to surface every contributing factor for complex, multi-cause problems, then validate likely causes with evidence.

    Apply Fault Tree Analysis and FMEA

    Use top-down Fault Tree Analysis with AND and OR logic for safety-critical events, and apply FMEA to identify failure modes and prioritise corrective actions by risk priority number.

    Run the 8D Methodology

    Work through all eight disciplines, from team formation and interim containment to root-cause identification, permanent corrective action, recurrence prevention and closure, the standard for customer 8D reports.

    Drive Corrective Action That Holds

    Develop effective corrective actions, tell verification apart from validation, and support ISO 9001:2015 Clause 10.2 and CAPA so fixes are proven to prevent recurrence, not just implemented.

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

    Root Cause Analysis (RCA) training is a practical, one-day skills programme that teaches you to investigate problems, defects and incidents and eliminate the causes that make them recur. It suits quality engineers, production supervisors, process-improvement and EHS professionals, IT incident managers, and anyone who owns corrective actions.

    General

    What is Root Cause Analysis training and who is it for?

    Root Cause Analysis (RCA) training is a practical, one-day skills programme that teaches you to investigate problems, defects and incidents and eliminate the causes that make them recur. It suits quality engineers, production supervisors, process-improvement and EHS professionals, IT incident managers, and anyone who owns corrective actions.

    Is root cause analysis worth learning in South Korea?

    Yes. RCA is a highly transferable skill valued across Korea's semiconductor, automotive, battery, electronics, pharma and IT sectors, where preventing recurring defects and incidents is a daily priority. It maps to roles from Quality Engineer to Quality Manager and strengthens your workplace impact from day one.

    Which RCA tools does the course cover?

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

    Do I need prior experience or a background in quality?

    No. There are no formal prerequisites. Some familiarity with quality or process improvement helps, but the course introduces RCA methodology and tools from first principles, so professionals from any function can take it.

    How does RCA relate to ISO 9001 and Six Sigma?

    RCA is the engine of corrective action. It underpins ISO 9001:2015 Clause 10.2, which requires organisations to determine the causes of nonconformities and prevent recurrence, and it is the core of the Six Sigma DMAIC Analyse phase. The course links the tools directly to these frameworks.

    Pricing

    What is included in the RCA training fee?

    The fee typically includes instructor-led training across all six RCA modules, hands-on tool exercises and case investigations, learning materials, learner support, and a course completion certificate from Invensis Learning. Request a quote for the inclusions that apply to your chosen format.

    How much does RCA training cost in South Korea?

    Pricing varies by delivery mode (live virtual, classroom or corporate onsite) and group size. For current fees in your preferred format, the price is available on request. Talk to a learning advisor for a tailored quote.

    Do you offer group or corporate pricing?

    Yes. We offer corporate group training with customised schedules and volume-based pricing for quality, operations and engineering teams. Ask about corporate or group pricing for a quote built around your team size and location.

    What payment options are available?

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

    Assessment

    Is there an exam for the RCA training?

    No. This is a non-certification skills course with no examination. Learning is reinforced through hands-on tool exercises, case-study investigations and team discussion during the programme, so you build capability by applying the tools rather than sitting a test.

    Will I receive a certificate after the training?

    Yes. On completing the programme you receive a course completion certificate from Invensis Learning. No external credential or certification is awarded, as RCA is a practical skills discipline with no governing exam body.

    How is my learning assessed during the course?

    Learning is assessed informally through applied practice. You complete Is / Is Not exercises, a 5 Whys investigation, a Fishbone workshop, and an 8D report for a realistic problem, so you demonstrate each tool in use rather than through a formal grade.

    What will I be able to do after completing the training?

    You will be able to write precise problem statements, apply the 5 Whys, facilitate Fishbone workshops, use Fault Tree Analysis and FMEA, complete 8D reports, and develop and verify corrective actions that support ISO 9001:2015 Clause 10.2 and CAPA.

    Course Content

    What topics are covered in the RCA syllabus?

    The course covers RCA principles and problem types, problem definition and data collection (Is / Is Not, timeline analysis), the 5 Whys, the Fishbone diagram and Fault Tree Analysis, FMEA, the full 8D methodology, and corrective action, verification and building an RCA culture.

    How long is the training and how is it structured?

    The programme runs for one day (eight hours) and can also be delivered as two half-days. It moves through six modules with concept explanations, worked examples, and hands-on RCA exercises throughout, so the whole day is practical and applied.

    Are there hands-on exercises and case studies?

    Yes. Every tool is practised on realistic scenarios: an Is / Is Not problem-definition exercise, a 5 Whys investigation, a Fishbone construction and facilitation, an 8D report, and corrective-action planning. In corporate sessions, teams can apply the tools to their own real problems.

    Is the course relevant beyond manufacturing?

    Yes. While RCA is heavily used in manufacturing, the same tools apply in healthcare, IT service management, pharma, energy, financial services and the public sector, anywhere problems, defects or incidents must be prevented from recurring.
