Certified Robotic Safety Manager

Course Description

The Certified Robotic Safety Manager (CRSM) course is an intensive four-day professional development program designed to provide participants with the knowledge and skills necessary to identify robotic hazards, conduct robotic risk assessments, implement safeguarding systems, comply with OSHA requirements, and develop effective robotic safety programs. This course examines industrial robots, collaborative robots, Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs), Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs), and robotic systems operating in manufacturing, warehousing, logistics, aerospace, automotive, healthcare, and other industrial environments.

Participants will learn how OSHA machine guarding regulations, ANSI robotic standards, ISO robotic standards, NFPA electrical requirements, and risk assessment methodologies are applied to protect employees working around robotic systems. The course emphasizes practical applications, hazard recognition, safeguarding methods, incident prevention, and compliance strategies.

What You'll Learn

• Upon successful completion of this course, participants will be able to:
• Understand OSHA robotic and machine guarding requirements
• Identify robot classifications and robotic system hazards
• Define robot space, safeguarded space, and restricted zones
• Apply ANSI and ISO robotic safety standards
• Conduct robotic risk assessments
• Evaluate safeguarding methods and limiting devices
• Understand collaborative robot applications
• Analyze functional safety requirements
• Apply energy isolation and lockout procedures
• Develop robotic safety management programs
• Understand robotic integration safety principles
• Evaluate AGV and AMR safety systems
• Conduct robotic incident investigations
• Develop effective robotic safety training programs

Who Should Attend

The Certified Robotic Safety Manager (CRSM) course is designed for senior-level Safety Managers, HSE Directors, and Robotics Program Managers with 3-5+ years of experience in manufacturing, automotive, and industrial automation industries who oversee multiple robotic systems and facility-wide safety compliance. Plant Managers, Operations Managers, and experienced Safety Consultants advising organizations on robotic safety program development and regulatory adherence should also pursue this advanced certification. Candidates must have prior CRSA certification or equivalent experience and currently hold a management role with team leadership and budget responsibilities.
