Lead Auditor Training

Lead auditor training for ISO 9001, 14001, 45001, 22000, 22301, 27001 and 13485, delivered fully online so your team can qualify without travel or time away from site.

What a Lead Auditor course is for

An internal auditor checks their own organisation. A lead auditor plans and leads an audit, decides what evidence is sufficient, writes findings that will be challenged, and takes responsibility for the conclusion. These are different skills, and the step up is where most people find the gap.

Courses are delivered fully online, so a team can qualify without travel. Each course is tied to a single standard, because auditing an environmental system and auditing an information security system call for different evidence and different questions.
