ISO 21001 Internal Auditor Training Course
ISO 21001:2018 is the management system standard written specifically for educational organisations. Where a general quality standard asks whether processes are controlled, ISO 21001 asks whether learners are actually served: whether education is accessible, whether it is personalised where it needs to be, and whether the institution can show that learners are satisfied with what they receive.
This two-day course develops the skills and competence to conduct an Educational Organizations Management System (EOMS) audit. Participants learn audit principles, methods and techniques, work through audit procedures, and become competent to lead an audit programme and an audit team, supported throughout by practical exercises.
ISO 21001 and ISO 9001
Why Education Has Its Own Standard
ISO 9001
A general quality management standard, applicable across every industry.
ISO 21001
Developed specifically for educational organisations, focused on learner satisfaction, accessibility, personalised education and educational effectiveness.
What it means for the auditor: auditing an EOMS means examining teaching and learning processes, not only administrative ones. An audit that checks documents and never reaches the learner has missed what the standard is for.
