About CRO Emergency Response Assessment
The OPITO CRO Emergency Response assessment has been developed to assess a delegate’s performance in controlling emergencies and critical situations while carrying out the duties of the CRO. It is meant for personnel who are currently working as CRO or those that are about to be appointed to the CRO position.
After a short interactive theory session, the delegate will be required to demonstrate their responses to realistic control room situations in an environment that is similar to that in which they work. A computer based simulator, with basic process logic and flow, will be used to support the expected responses to be made in the position of the Control Room Operator during Emergency situations. Each session will be followed by a one-on-one debrief, highlighting strengths and weakness levels observed by the assessor.
This course, which takes between one and three days to complete depending on the number of attending delegates, is conducted at Samson Tiara’s award winning training facility in Cilegon, Banten, Indonesia, a one and half hour drive west of Jakarta.
