SCT: Safety Critical Training

Safety Critical Training (SCT) is a premier online content source dedicated to the simulation and training needs of safety-critical industries. SCT focuses on sectors such as healthcare, energy, transportation, and emergency response, providing comprehensive coverage of the latest training practices, technological advancements, and safety protocols essential for maintaining high standards of operational safety.

Industry Challenges and Opportunities

Safety Critical Training & Training Technology suppliers face significant opportunities in the coming years. According to the World Economic Forum, nearly 44% of workers' skills are expected to be disrupted within the next five years, with 60% of employees requiring reskilling and upskilling by 2027. This immense need for workforce development underscores the importance of effective training solutions.

Workplace safety remains a critical issue, with 4.1 million people injured annually in the US alone, costing $74 billion in compensation (US-OHSA). In the EU, work-related ill-health and injury cost €476 billion annually, with rising compensation costs and potential reputational damage further increasing the stakes for safety-critical industries.

Addressing Training Needs

Industries such as Medicine, Mining, Marine, Oil & Gas, and Transport face common challenges: loss of experienced staff, the necessity to train across multiple locations and cultures, and the need to deliver cost-effective, measurable, and sustainable skills transfer. These challenges create significant opportunities for those who can provide advanced training solutions. New industries bring entirely new training challenges and opportunities; as an example, the wind farm industry will require 574,000 new personnel by 2027.

Emerging Technologies

SCT is at the forefront of showcasing how emerging technologies like AI, AR, VR, Blockchain, digital twins, and enhanced training games can revolutionize safety-critical training. These technologies are poised to make training more effective and accessible, accelerating the deployment and use of these innovations.
