An internal audit is the only routine check an organisation runs on its own quality management system, and it is the one place where problems can still be found cheaply. Done well it surfaces gaps before a certification body does. Done as a paperwork exercise, it confirms that the paperwork exists.
This two-day course teaches effective audit technique alongside the requirements of ISO 9001:2015, and develops the skills needed to plan and execute an audit that produces findings worth acting on. It follows the management system auditing guidelines of ISO 19011 throughout.
Learning Outcomes
Course Content
Why It Matters
Problems identified inside the organisation, before an external auditor arrives.
Evidence of whether the QMS is working, not just whether it is documented.
Gaps and risks made visible to the people who can do something about them.
Nonconformities written so that they lead to correction, not argument.
Improvement opportunities identified alongside compliance gaps.
A system that is ready when the certification audit comes round.
Who Should Attend
Before You Begin
Note: a grounding in ISO 9001:2015 and quality management concepts helps participants get more from the auditing content. Those entirely new to the standard may prefer to complete an ISO 9001 awareness programme first.
