ISO 9001:2026 Transition Course
ISO 9001 remains the world's leading quality management standard. ISO 9001:2026 introduces a measured but meaningful revision, including new requirements on quality culture and ethical behaviour, a clearer separation of risks and opportunities, strengthened management of change, and substantially expanded explanatory guidance in Annex A.
This one-day course is designed for organisations already certified to ISO 9001:2015. It helps you interpret what has changed, assess the impact on your existing quality management system, and plan a confident transition within the three-year transition period.

Frequently Asked Questions
It is a one-day online course for organisations already certified to ISO 9001:2015. It explains what has changed in ISO 9001:2026, what those changes mean in practice and in audit, and how to plan a transition within the three-year transition period.
The revision introduces new requirements on quality culture and ethical behaviour, separates risks from opportunities more clearly, strengthens the management of change, updates core terminology in line with ISO 9000:2026, reorganises Clause 10, and substantially expands the guidance in Annex A while removing Annex B.
Quality managers and management representatives leading the transition, internal and external QMS auditors updating audit programmes and checklists, process owners and functional teams, consultants supporting client organisations, and training partners and certification body auditors preparing to assess against ISO 9001:2026.
A working knowledge of ISO 9001:2015 requirements and experience implementing, managing or auditing a quality management system. The course builds on that base rather than introducing the standard from the beginning.
Certified organisations have a three-year transition period. The course helps you use that window as a planned project, covering which parts of your existing QMS need review and which do not require change.
The programme runs as a single day of online training, working through the revision clause by clause and closing with transition planning.
