ISO Internal Auditor Certification (Virtual)

Overview

This two-day workshop prepares you to successfully and accurately perform an internal audit of business operations as they relate to ISO certification.

Why ISO Internal Auditor?

The internal audit function entails a tremendous amount of responsibility, including an awareness of not only the audit process as a whole, but also the specific nuances of an organization’s relevant standards. This vital role demands a practitioner with a solid understanding of internal audit methodologies.

The DVIRC Difference

Achieving ISO certification is merely the first step. Maintaining that certification long-term requires a regular audit cycle, and it is imperative to maintain effective quality processes and business practices in order to stay on the straight and narrow. Internal audits are an effective way to stay on track.

This training will cover both the newly released ISO 9001:2015 standard and the ISO 9001:2008 standard. The course will provide a bridge between the two. Students will learn to audit both versions of the standard.

Participants are guided through the audit process while we provide instruction on the ways to prepare an audit plan, conduct opening meetings, effectively audit documents and records, memorialize findings, hold a closing meeting, and write the audit report.

DVIRC’s program also includes a comprehensive overview of requirements, process approach, and management systems characteristics. What’s more, we review the Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) approach and present a thorough explanation of all ISO clauses with practical exercises and group interactions to reinforce the coursework.
