Module 0 - Introduction

0.1 About the course
 
This online ISO 9001 Lead Auditor training is provided free. It reflects what you will typically learn at any formal accredted lead auditor training course provided by a Registrar or certification body. What is missing is the direct interaction between the instructor and the student which is vital to such training. Direct interaction provides explanation of details, finer points and answers to questions.

However, should you decide to become an ISO 9001 Lead Auditor and take a formal accredited course, the online ISO 9001 auditor training material provided here will give you significant insight and detail to ensure your success.

Formal ISO 9000 Lead Auditor training covers five days (40 hours in-class time) and is designed for students who have had a prior review of the ISO 9001:2000 standard and some audit experience. This background will enable students to better appreciate and learn the principles and practices of effective quality management system auditing in accordance with ISO 19011, which is the ISO auditing standard for quality and environmental management systems.
 
It is equally suitable for personnel wishing to carry out first party (internal auditing), second party (external auditing ‑ suppliers) and third party (on behalf of one organization on another) audits.

The accredted ISO 9001 Lead Auditor training formal course typically requires formal classroom sessions, exercises in small teams and open forum discussions. In order to gain the greatest benefit from the formal course, it is recommended that students reside at the course venue for the duration of the course. The closest similar experience, this online training will provide is plenty of exercises to test your learning

ISO 9001 Training - While some specific industrial examples may be utilized, the course places no particular emphasis on any industry. It is as relevant to service as it is to the manufacturing industry. I

The course is prepared in nine modules within an overall framework that complies with the requirements of ISO 19011. To get the most out of this on-line ISO 9001 Lead Auditor training course, you should take notes and reread each module more than once. Don't forget to do all the exercises provided at the end of this course.

Throughout this ISO 9001 lead auditor training material, reference is made to the ISO 9001 Standard and other supporting standards. It is very important that you read these reference documents as they go hand in hand with this course and essential to passing the formal ISO 9000 Lead Auditor Course should you take it.
