IATF 16949:2016 Internal Auditor Training Course
IATF 16949 sits on top of ISO 9001, and auditing it well means holding both in view at once, along with the customer-specific requirements each OEM adds on top. An internal audit that checks clauses without following processes will pass a system that a certification body will not.
This three-day course gives an in-depth review of the ISO 9001 and IATF 16949 requirements, with interpretation rather than recitation, and then teaches participants to plan and execute audits of an Automotive Quality Management System. Knowledge is applied throughout through individual participation and group exercises.
