    What Is Root Cause Analysis and Why It MattersUntitledFixing Causes, Not Symptoms

    The Root Cause Analysis (RCA) Training in France from Invensis Learning is a practical, one-day programme that teaches professionals how to investigate problems, identify their underlying causes and put corrective actions in place that prevent recurrence. Rather than treating symptoms, you learn to separate the symptom, the immediate cause and the true root cause, then apply the right tool to each problem. The course builds a complete RCA toolkit: the 5 Whys, the Fishbone (Ishikawa) diagram, Fault Tree Analysis, Failure Mode and Effects Analysis, Pareto analysis and the 8D problem-solving method. It also shows how structured root cause investigation underpins corrective action under ISO 9001:2015 (Clause 10.2), the Analyse phase of Six Sigma DMAIC, Lean, ITIL problem management and regulated CAPA processes. This is a non-certification skills course: there is no exam, and participants receive a course completion record from Invensis Learning. It suits quality engineers, operations and continuous improvement professionals across France's manufacturing, aerospace, automotive, pharmaceutical and service sectors who want to solve recurring problems for good.

    Market Forces Making Root Cause Skills Essential in France

    Costly Recurring Defects

    French manufacturers lose margin to defects and rework that keep returning because teams fix symptoms, not causes. Structured RCA breaks that cycle for good.

    RCA breaks the cycle of repeat problems

    Customer 8D Requirements

    Aerospace and automotive OEMs such as Airbus and Stellantis require documented 8D problem-solving from suppliers. Teams need people who can complete them credibly.

    RCA builds 8D problem-solving skills

    Ageing Industrial Workforce

    With over 40% of France's industrial workforce retiring by 2030, hard-won problem-solving know-how is walking out the door and must be rebuilt through training.

    RCA rebuilds problem-solving know-how

    Regulated CAPA Pressure

    Pharma and medical-device firms such as Sanofi must show rigorous root cause investigation to satisfy EU MDR, ISO 13485 and FDA CAPA expectations.

    RCA supports CAPA investigation

    Reindustrialisation and New Sites

    France 2030 is funding gigafactories and new plants. Fresh production lines create new problems that demand fast, disciplined root cause analysis.

    RCA speeds problem-solving on new lines

    Quality 4.0 and Data Complexity

    Industry 4.0 generates more data and more failure modes. Tools like Fishbone, FTA and FMEA help teams turn that complexity into clear corrective action.

    RCA turns data into corrective action

    Your France Career Transformation

    From Firefighting to Root Cause Mastery

    Your Before and After

    French industry is under pressure to cut waste, meet customer quality demands and prevent costly recurrence. Employers increasingly separate professionals who can find and fix root causes from those who only treat symptoms. Here is which side of that line you want to be on.

    Today

    Problems keep coming back despite repeated quick fixes

    After RCA

    You reach the true root cause and put corrective actions in place that hold

    Today

    You rely on experience and instinct alone to investigate issues

    After RCA

    You apply structured tools like 5 Whys, Fishbone, FTA and 8D with confidence

    Today

    Limited leverage for quality and operations roles in a competitive market

    After RCA

    In-demand problem-solving skills valued across French industry

    You build RCA capability

    Before

    Investigations stop at the immediate cause or blame an individual

    Now you have

    A method that separates symptom, immediate cause and true root cause

    Before

    Corrective actions that fade and let problems return

    Now you have

    Verified corrective actions with a way to confirm they actually work

    Before

    Struggle to meet customer 8D and ISO 9001 corrective action demands

    Now you have

    The ability to complete 8D reports and support ISO 9001 Clause 10.2

    Before

    Recognition tied to one employer or sector

    Now you have

    A transferable skillset that travels across sectors and roles

    "The difference between fixing a problem once and fixing it for good is a structured root cause method, and employers know it."

    The RCA Tools You Will MasterApplied to Real Problems

    In this Root Cause Analysis course you will learn to define problems precisely, investigate them with proven tools, and build corrective actions that prevent recurrence. By the end of the one-day programme you can select and apply the right RCA method for any problem you face.

    Problem Definition and Is/Is Not Analysis

    Write a precise, factual problem statement and use Is/Is Not analysis to narrow down where a problem does and does not occur, so your investigation starts on solid ground.

    The 5 Whys Technique

    Apply iterative why questioning to drill from a symptom to the true root cause of simple, single-cause problems, and recognise when an investigation has stopped too early or slipped into blame.

    Fishbone (Ishikawa) Diagram

    Assessment

    Is there an exam for this course?

    No. Root Cause Analysis training is a non-certification course with no examination. Learning is reinforced through hands-on tool exercises, case-study investigations and team discussion throughout the one-day programme.

    Will I receive a certificate?

    You receive a course completion record from Invensis Learning after completing the training. This is not a certification or accredited credential; it recognises the practical RCA skills you have built.

    How is learning assessed?

    There is no formal assessment. Instead, you apply multiple RCA tools to realistic problem scenarios during the day, including Is/Is Not, 5 Whys, Fishbone and an 8D report, so you practise the skills as you learn them.

    How long is the training?

    The course runs for one day, around eight hours, covering RCA principles, problem definition, the 5 Whys, Fishbone and Fault Tree Analysis, FMEA, the 8D method, and corrective action and verification.

    Do the skills expire or need renewal?

    No. There is no credential to maintain or renew. The RCA methodology and tools you learn are immediately applicable and stay relevant throughout your career.

    Course Content

    What will I learn in the course?

    You will learn to define problems precisely, collect evidence, and apply the 5 Whys, Fishbone diagram, Fault Tree Analysis, FMEA and the 8D method, then develop and verify corrective actions that prevent recurrence.

    Which RCA tools are covered and how do they differ?

    The 5 Whys suits simple problems, the Fishbone diagram organises complex multi-cause problems, Fault Tree Analysis handles safety-critical events, FMEA prioritises actions by risk, and 8D provides a structured team-based corrective-action format.

    Are there hands-on exercises?

    Yes. The day is built around practice: an Is/Is Not problem definition exercise, a 5 Whys investigation, a Fishbone workshop, an 8D report and corrective-action planning on realistic scenarios.

    Does the course cover 8D problem-solving?

    Yes. You work through all eight disciplines, from team formation and interim containment to root cause, permanent corrective action, prevention and closure, the format automotive and aerospace customers expect from suppliers.

    How does RCA relate to ISO 9001 and CAPA?

    RCA provides the structured investigation behind corrective action. The course shows how it satisfies ISO 9001:2015 Clause 10.2 and the investigation step of CAPA in regulated pharma and medical-device environments.
