Overview

COURSE INTRODUCTION

Internal auditing is a mandatory requirement of all formal ISO Management systems, including 14001 (Environmental Management)

An internal audit will assess compliance of the organisation against the relevant standard and their own internal operating procedures.

Additionally, all management system standards have continual improvement as a key requirement and a well conducted internal audit will identify improvement opportunities and develop better working practices and business improvement.

This course develops essential skills for internal auditors to assess, report and assist with improvement of ISO 14001:2015 management system standards.

This course will provide students the knowledge and skills necessary to conduct internal audits within your organisation. Whether it's providing the skills to ask the right questions to get the most out of audits, or understanding the intricacies of ISO 14001:2015 and it's structure, this course will provide unique opportunities to continuous improvements over your organisation's Environmental Management.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
