As SaRS offers a route to Chartered Engineering Status, the Seminar is structured to provide CPD to those already Chartered and to assist those working their way towards Chartered Status.  The Seminar will also provide a means for non-Technical Safety Engineers to develop an awareness of legislation and safety issues relevant to the oil and gas industry.

The North of Scotland Branch of the Safety and Reliability Society hosted their 2007 annual dinner at the Marcliffe at Pitfodels Hotel in Aberdeen.

This was the sixth annual dinner, and in the short time since 2002 has established itself as an important and highly regarded event in the safety and reliability community in the Aberdeen area.
