New internal auditors
Build a repeatable approach to planning, interviewing and documenting evidence, even when auditing a department outside your own.
Learn, practice, assess and develop
ISO Internal Auditor Training
Learn to conduct internal audits that reveal how your management system works, identify gaps and give process owners clear evidence for improvement.
Who This Training Is For
Quality and management system teams
Develop an audit programme that covers important processes and risks, rather than repeating the same checklist each year.
CISOs and compliance teams
Practice tracing security responsibilities and controls to evidence, and communicating weaknesses to the people who can address them.
Consultants and independent practitioners
Strengthen first-party audit skills while recognizing conflicts of interest and the need for objective, impartial evaluation.
Plan an audit around processes and risks
Accredify Global training guides you through defining scope, objectives and criteria, selecting samples and building an audit plan. Practice following a process across departmental boundaries and choosing questions that test implementation rather than simply asking whether a policy exists.
Practice interviews, evidence and findings
Work through audit scenarios: interview a process owner, compare statements with records, recognize an evidence gap and write a finding that connects the requirement, objective evidence and nonconformity. Instructor feedback helps you separate observation from assumption.
Use internal audits to prepare for external assessment
Internal audits help your organization recognize weaknesses before an external audit. Learn to report findings clearly, assign follow-up responsibilities and check whether corrective action addresses the cause. Keep internal audit and management review records available as evidence of your own management system. Training does not guarantee an external audit outcome.
Assessment and your next audit plan
A post-training assessment tests the knowledge and audit judgment covered in the course. Use results and feedback to identify where you need more practice, such as sampling, interviewing or writing findings. Plan your first workplace audits with suitable supervision and review before taking on more complex assignments.
Close the loop after the audit
Prepare a concise report, communicate priorities to process owners and agree how actions will be followed up. Learn the difference between correcting an immediate issue and checking that corrective action prevents recurrence. Use audit results to inform the next audit programme.
Choose the Standard Relevant to Your Work
Choose the standard that matches your responsibilities and intended audit scope. Explore the training hub for standards and available sessions, or ask the training team to help you select a suitable starting point.
Frequently Asked Questions
What should I know before attending?
You should understand the requirements of the ISO standard you intend to audit. Awareness training is a useful starting point if you are new to that standard. Confirm prerequisites for the selected session.
Will this help us prepare for certification or surveillance?
It helps your team conduct meaningful internal audits, identify gaps and follow up corrective action. Certification and surveillance decisions remain subject to an independent assessment of the organization.
Can I audit my own work after training?
Audit assignments must preserve objectivity and impartiality. Avoid auditing your own work and agree suitable assignments and supervision with the person managing your audit programme.
What certificate will I receive?
Participants who meet the stated attendance and assessment requirements receive a Certificate of Successful Completion. A Certificate of Attendance records participation where successful-completion requirements have not been met or assessed. Confirm assessment arrangements with the training team before booking.
