Description

Introduction

 ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 require that an organisation conduct internal audits to determine the effectiveness of its quality, environmental and health and safety system.  Trained auditors must carry out these audits.

 Thousands of audits are performed each year providing little internal business benefit.   This course focuses on auditing for real improvement rather than just compliance.
