Robertson Safety Institute

Abstract

Verbatim from Embry-Riddle Scholarly Commons. Not paraphrased, not summarized.

As an exhibitor at the Air Conference, I had a display booth at the conference with displays telling what the Robertson Safety Institute is and our capabilities in the safety arena which includes academe, industry and government entities. For the poster session, I expanded on this so people can understand in more detail what RSI is and demonstrate possible collaborative opportunities with conference attendees. The poster session provided a good outreach venue for the RSI personnel to meet colleagues from many disciplines and to establish and/or re-establish working relationships to enhance future development opportunities.The RSI is a center for research, development, short courses and training, and corporate outreach in safety education, housed at Embry-Riddle in Prescott, Arizona.Some of the many professional course offerings available from the RSI include:•Aircraft Ditching, Escape and Survival• Accident Investigation• Aircraft Crash Survival Investigation• Biological Hazards & Crash Site Safety• Structural Failure Investigation• Emergency Response Plans• Wildlife Training Workshops• What is Safety Culture and How to Develop It• Witness Interviewing• Occupational Safety• Human Factors & Ergonomics• Industrial Hygiene
