An integral part of a successful management system is a thoughtful audit program.  An audit program is also essential and required to achieve and maintain accreditation.  During this training, an ANAB instructor provides a detailed review of ISO/IEC 17025 and related quality principles.  Additional discussion on the relevant requirements is included.  Guidance on practices related to ISO 19011 Guidelines for Auditing Management Systems is provided in the course.  Hands-on audit activities are incorporated throughout the course so the participant can immediately begin to leverage the knowledge they gain during the course.  Development and use of checklists is an integral part of the curriculum.  The course is presented over 3.25 days and there is an open book examination on the last day. 

Learning Objectives:

-          Gain specific knowledge, skills and abilities for designing an ISO/IEC 17025 compliant management system and for planning and conducting an internal audit within their own testing laboratory.
