"Internal audits are an important requirement of recognised quality standards (e.g. BRC, CLAS, ISO 9000, ISO 22000) and compare practice with requirements - the "voice of the system". An effective, well-planned internal audit programme using trained auditors will give confidence in the true status of your systems and permit areas of weakness to be identified so the necessary improvements can be made. This course will enable delegates to become familiar with the principles of auditing techniques and to create an internal audit programme which will help improve the standard of their operation, and meet the requirements of recognised quality standards."
