CASS Assessors

The CASS Registered Functional Safety Assessor scheme is a registration scheme for experienced functional safety assessors who use the CASS methodology. A candidate for the scheme requires a referee and proposer to vouch for their technical capability and experience. Registration is based on a peer / panel review of the assessor’s knowledge and experience in their claimed scope and is not a personnel competence certification scheme.

How the CASS Registered Functional Safety Assessor scheme works:

• Candidates provide evidence of their assessor training / experience in their particular scope which is evaluated by a panel of other qualified practitioners.
• The CASS Scheme Association maintains and publishes a register of functional safety assessors (RFSAs) who have met the registration requirements.
• RFSAs are permitted to use the ‘CASS Mark’ (which includes their personal ID) on their assessment reports.
• The CASS Scheme Association does not view or accept responsibility for any assessment report.
• Registration is optional – the existing use of the CASS methodology is unchanged (i.e. without the ‘CASS Mark’).
