Bridging the Gap: What You Need to Know about the Revised ARP4761A
PD5344337
- Content
This eLearning course is a high-level introduction to the revised SAE standard ARP4761A and its application of the guidelines of practice for aircraft and systems safety assessment. Learners will gain key insights only available from SAE, including how the new standard covers the safety assessment process throughout the development lifecycle and how it interacts with and influences the development of aircraft functions and systems. You’ll get a look into the revised version which was published in December of 2023.
This two-hour offering introduces the critical concepts honed through decades of work to ensure you have what you need for early identification and application of safety objectives to influence the architecture and design for both project risk reduction and certification. You’ll hear why this important standard was revised, what has changed and what remains steadfast.

- By attending this seminar, you will be able to:
- Recognize the updates and expanded guidelines in ARP4761A for conducting the safety assessment process on civil aircraft, systems, and equipment, in comparison to previous versions
- Outline the primary goals, objectives, and steps involved in the safety assessment process for aircraft and system development, in accordance with ARP4761A guidelines
- Identify failure conditions with a Functional Hazard Assessment and recognize safety objectives for a project using the ARP4761A framework (AFHA, SFHA)
- Evaluate proposed aircraft or system architectures against safety objectives to minimize project risks and identify safety requirements and operational expectations using ARP4761A (PASA, PSSA)
- Conduct common safety analysis methods within the context of an overall safety assessment process, such as Fault Tree Analysis (FTA), Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA), and others. (FTA, FMEA, CMA, PRA, ZSA, CEA, FDAL/IDAL assignment)
- Utilize the safety assessment process to influence the development of aircraft and system functions, architectures, and implementations while identifying areas where design space can be further opened
- Articulate safety assessment interests when interacting with the aircraft or system development process, including planning, reviews, testing, and certification substantiation
- Assess whether an aircraft or system has met its safety objectives as the implementation is developed using ARP4761A safety assessment processes (SSA, ASA)
- Analyze the safety assessment process to determine how it establishes confidence and produces substantiation that the aircraft or system performs its intended function safely for customers and certification purposes, in accordance with the guidelines (SSA, ASA)
- Recognize whether safety objectives are fully satisfied on at the conclusion of a project

Developed by a member of SAE’s S-18 committee developing ARP4754B and ARP4761A, this course is for the systems engineer, safety analyst, project managers, adjacent roles who interact with the safety assessment or other key personnel working on civil aircraft system design and development who need a crisp, compelling overview of the new standard.
Both new and experienced safety professionals in OEMs and their suppliers who lead, develop, implement, and/or have responsibility for the effectiveness of safety systems should participate in this offering. This standard, and its companion ARP4761A have become expected for most of the world’s civil aircraft and some military aircraft, making them a necessity for practically all the aircraft and systems manufacturers worldwide.
This short course will facilitate success in the full course, C2302 ARP4761A Guidelines for Development of Civil Aircraft and Systems. ARP4754B should not live apart from ARP4761A. We recommend that you enroll in the eLearnings or full courses for each of the standards. There is special pricing on the standards for those who enroll in these courses:
ARP4754B Guidelines for Development of Civil Aircraft and Systems
ARP4761A Guidelines and Methods of Performing the Safety Assessment for Certification of Civil Aircraft
