Aims At the end of this course, participants will be able to:
understand the need for, and the benefits of, a systematic and dedicated audit programme
understand the objectives, extent and responsibilities involved in establishing the programme
be aware of the resources needed, the procedures, records, monitoring and review activities

establish, implement and maintain an internal or external audit programme in accordance with the criteria set out in ISO 19011, the Standard for Auditing Skills
Profile This course is ideal for those who are responsible for setting up and running an internal audit programme, or an external programme aimed at auditing suppliers and subcontractors. The correct management and review of an audit programme is critical to its success in providing real improvements to the business. We know that all too often, audit programmes are haphazard and take place on an ‘ad hoc’ basis. Issues of auditor competence are rarely addressed. The course is designed to address the issues involved and to provide a thorough understanding of these requirements as set by ISO guide to management systems auditing (ISO 19011). It is designed to ensure that the participants are aware of the options available to them and to introduce ideas of current best practice. The programme applies to all management specialisms, quality, environmental, occupational health & safety and social systems.
