Congratulations Rafael Barreto on becoming a certified Functional Safety Manager. The certification was carried out according to IEC 61511. Rafael achieved the Expert certification level which means among others he could demonstrate over 1500 hours as Functional Safety Manager.

- Proof of formal training in functional safety management (FSM)
- Two independent references that confirm that Rafael actual worked as functional safety manager
- Two different case studies demonstrating Rafael’s active role
- Over 1500 hours of practical experience
- FSM understanding through an interview with an expert
What did Rafael Barreto have to say about his certification?
Frankly I thought that the certification process would have been easy and plain. I did not expect it to be so analytical and in-depth. Now that I completed the entire certification program, it has even more important meaning since behind it, there are structured and thorough checks on information, knowledge and experience. It has a substantial value for its completeness and for what it reflects about those who are the holders of the certificate. In addition, at a personal level, the certification program even helped me to enrich my views on FSM and on the positive returns for business. I enjoyed the process, the instilled inspiration and I feel proud of what has been achieved.
