ISO 9001:2015 & IATF 16949:2016

Lead Auditor Training Course

5 Day Schedule:	7:30 AM – 5:30 PM MST
Audience:	Beginner to Advanced

Overview

This five-day course was developed to cover all requirements of both the ISO 9001:2015 and IATF 16949:2016 standards, including the new IATF 16949 requirements for Internal and Second Party Auditors (clauses 7.2.3 and 7.2.4) regarding Core Tools and Customer-Specific Requirements. You’ll learn how to interpret the verbiage of the ISO 9001:2015 & IATF16949:2016 Standards and apply it to your own organization. We’ll take you through the full audit process, including: audit planning and preparation, opening meetings, document review, interviewing auditees, closing meetings and reporting. Training includes easy-to-use tools to simplify the auditing process.

This is a practical, how-to course that is not bogged down in academic discussions. We use case studies, role-plays, and other real-life practice exercises to keep the training active and build competence.
