ISO 26262 Crash Course: Functional Safety Mastery

Learn ISO 26262 from an Senior Functional Safety Manager | HARA, ASIL, FMEDA, Hardware Metrics & Safety Culture

Why do 20,000+ automotive engineers choose this course?

Because ISO 26262 training shouldn’t cost €3,000–5,000 or take weeks of your life.

I’m Paul Danci, Functional Safety Manager with 15+ years of automotive experience, working across Tier-1, Tier-2, and OEM environments, including real series projects, since the early days of ISO 26262.

This course is designed to give you a clear, practical foundation in automotive functional safety, focused on how ISO 26262 is actually applied in projects, not just how it’s written.

What you’ll be able to do after this course

• Perform a Hazard Analysis and Risk Assessment (HARA) and derive ASILs

• Understand and calculate hardware safety metrics using FMEDA (SPFM, LFM, PMHF)

• Create and understand core ISO 26262 work products used in real projects

• Understand the V-model from vehicle level down to hardware and software elements

• Speak confidently about ISO 26262 in technical discussions, reviews, and assessments

What’s covered

• Functional safety fundamentals and ISO 26262 structure (overview of all parts)

• Concept phase: Item Definition, HARA, Safety Goals, Functional Safety Concept

• System, hardware, and software development, including ASIL decomposition

• Hardware safety: fault taxonomy, FMEDA principles, metric calculations

• Verification, validation, and the role of safety culture in development

Who this course is for

• Engineers starting their first ISO 26262 functional safety project

• System, hardware, or software engineers working in automotive

• Project managers and technical leads who need to understand ISO 26262

• Professionals transitioning into automotive from other safety-regulated industries

• Engineers preparing for deeper functional safety training or certification

Why this instead of expensive classroom training?

Traditional classroom courses cost €3,000-5,000 and take 3-5 full days.
This course delivers the same foundational understanding in 4 focused hours, with lifetime access and updates, so you can learn at your own pace and revisit topics when needed.

If you want a practical, engineer-focused introduction to ISO 26262 that you can apply immediately, this course is for you.
