Root Cause Analysis seeks to identify the origin of a problem . It uses a specific set of steps\, with tools such as the 5 Whys and Caus e & Effect Diagram\, to find the primary cause of the problem\, so that yo u can determine what happened\, why it happened and figure out what to do to prevent its recurrence.\n\nAudience\nThis tutorial has been prepared fo r beginners to help them understand the basics of Root Cause Analysis. Aft er completing this tutorial\, you will find yourself at a moderate level o f expertise\, from where you can advance further.\n\nKey Target/Objective: This entire seminar is designed to enable folks to be well informed on th e higher level technical aspects of RCA Philosophy\, so they can step into this world with full confidence\, with the right perspective.
