In general, you are right, but IEC TC108 and its Hazard-Based Standard
Development Team, responsible for IEC 62368-1 is a special case. It has
122 members at present, so it's quite difficult to get a hearing in
meetings; if every member had 5 minutes, the meeting would last nearly
11 hours, and even over two days, that's exhausting. It is much better
to contribute by correspondence (email).

A good training method is to join a standards committee. First, it forces
reading of the standard which is the first step that many fail at.
Also, the meal conversations at standards meetings have been a huge contributor
to my personal knowledge base. This is part of the reason I'm attending the
Product Safety Engineering Society (PSES) annual Symposium this month that John
recommended. It's a fantastic method to network and learn.

The annual PSES and EMC symposiums are the premier venues for compliance
engineering. That said, the PSES symposium sessions only talk about stuff.
After the prerequisite work of setting up and qualifying a test lab separate
from the design center, one must know and have experience with Type Testing
that may have edge cases adrift in a sea of if/then/else/else/... engineering
decisions. Type Tests for power conversion and ATEX stuff are essentially big
bags of edge cases. The training requirement is nothing less than watching and
participating in actual Type Tests that would apply to your category and class
of equipment after classroom discussions covering the physics of test standard
requirements.

Hi Kevin,
The Product Safety Engineering Society (PSES) is having our annual Symposium
this month. Many Product Safety and Certification subjects are on the program.
Including a 62368-1 Open forum with the guys that created it, implemented it
and use it daily!!

Subject: [PSES] Product Safety Testing and Evaluation training.
Hello
I am looking recommendations for companies (preferably in North America) that can provide training in product safety testing and evaluation to engineers who are beginning their career.
Ideally the training would concentrate on IEC 62368-1
Kind regards
Kevin
