IHF Training Courses
27th May, 2026 (Abu Dhabi, UAE): Understanding and Applying Human Factors and Ergonomics (HF/E) in Major Projects
IHF will be hosting this one-day training course in Abu Dhabi, UAE on 27th May, 2026.
This IHF training course addresses cross-industry HF/E considerations across the project life cycle, with key learning outcomes including the following:
- Understand the concept of HF/E and what it means in practice.
- Why and when HF/E should be applied in the project life cycle and how it should be integrated.
- Critical HF/E activities and artefacts required during the project life cycle.
The operational and commercial benefits of competently applying HF/E at the appropriate stages of projects.
This one-day training course in Abu Dhabi, UAE on 27th May, 2026 is open to individuals and groups from organisations at $990 (USD) per person.

IHF Webinars
21st May, 2026: Predictive Fatigue Risk Management: From Idea to Reality and What’s Next
This webinar hosted by transport engineering and safety expert Colin Kerr, MIET, iNARTE and workplace fatigue expert Neil Clark, C.ErgHF, FCIEHF, MPhil will provide an overview of how the BaselineNC™ Workplace Fatigue Monitoring Wearable evolved from an idea to an operational reality, recent evolutions and what is coming next with this revolutionary technology.
BaselineNC Workplace Fatigue Monitoring Wearable Overview
Beginning as DISC, through to FOCUS+ and now BaselineNC the project has seen the collaboration of academia, medical experts and industry to develop a world leading workplace fatigue monitoring system that can help save lives, reduce risk and deliver efficiencies in public transport but also across other industry sectors and safety-critical job roles.
Leading to a wider EIT Urban Mobility funded project involving Edinburgh Trams, DKV Debreceni Közlekedési Zrt. and Edinburgh Napier University, providing valuable data on how the system functions across different modes of public transport.
BaselineNC is also now part of the AVEVA Partner Ecosystem, further enabling the “human sensor” and allowing for a “predictive maintenance approach” — that is often utilised in asset performance management (APM) — in relation to the pre-emptive detection of the onset of worker fatigue and heat stress. Over time, this supports the protection of the human asset while generating insights into fatigue patterns across shifts, enabling organisations to predict and optimise work schedules to promote healthier working practices and improved organisational performance.

28th May, 2026: Human Factors Integration in UI and UX Design for Digital Systems
Inadequately designed User Interfaces (UI) and User Experiences (UX) create hidden risks in safety-critical and high-reliability industries. When systems are not intuitive, consistent or designed around human cognitive and physical capabilities, organisations face increased human error, safety risks, operational inefficiencies, technostress, low staff satisfaction, higher turnover, technology adoption struggles and rising training costs. There are regulatory compliance, standards and guidance factors such as BS EN ISO 11064, IEC 62366-1:2015, IEC 62682:2022 and ISO 9241-210:2019 that focus on UI and UX considerations such as ergonomic human-centred design, human-machine interface (HMI) and management of alarm systems.
In this webinar, Dr. Chizaram Nwankwo, C.ErgHF and Jessica Bailey — Senior Human Factors Consultants at Integrated Human Factors (IHF) — will provide an overview of human factors integration in UI and UX Design for digital systems and how IHF — a registered consultancy with the Chartered Institute of Ergonomics and Human Factors (CIEHF) — can help an organisation achieve enterprise-wide, integrated and proactive ergonomic risk management. can help an organisation ensure technology solutions are intuitive, error-resilient and compliant with regulatory compliance, standards and guidance factors.

25th June, 2026: An Introduction to Incident Investigation
In safety-critical industrial operations, accident and incident investigations managed using paper, spreadsheets and word documents can lead to problems such as auditability, control, incompleteness and reportability to regulators. This grows in complexity when organisations operate multiple sites without consistent and repeatable processes, intelligent trending and visibility of accidents/incidents. According to the COMAH Competent Authority, learning from incidents and accidents is important to ensure organisations prevent future similar incidents. After an accident/incident involving human failure, the investigation into the causes and contributing factors often makes little attempt to understand why the human failures occurred. Determining both the immediate and the underlying cause of an accident/incident is the key to preventing similar occurrences through the design of effective control measures and organisational learning.
In this webinar, Aidan Henderson, MSc — Senior Human Factors Consultant at Integrated Human Factors (IHF) — will provide an overview of ergonomics assessments and how IHF — a registered consultancy with the Chartered Institute of Ergonomics and Human Factors (CIEHF) — can help an organisation facilitate the integration of human factors into incident investigation — and as a result — identify and learn from trends, leading to proactive steps and targeted investment to reduce costs and mitigate accidents.
