Course certification
Extend your lead auditor expertise to occupational health and safety management systems (OH&SMS) with this CQI and IRCA certified ISO 45001 Auditor Conversion training course.
The course gives existing auditors the knowledge and expertise to perform 1st, 2nd and 3rd party audits of an OH&SMS against ISO 45001:2018.
The highly interactive training focuses around a simulated site audit, enabling students to work together put lessons learned into practice.
Successful completion satisfies the training requirements for certification as an IRCA OH&SMS auditor for those who are already lead auditors in another discipline.
Assessment is by continuous evaluation and an examination following the event.
- existing lead auditors in another discipline, such ISO 9001 or ISO 14001, who now wish to audit an OH&SMS against ISO 45001
- those who have completed a CQI & IRCA lead auditor course in another discipline and have some understanding of ISO 45001.
Those with little or no prior knowledge of ISO 45001 will benefit from first attending our IOSH approved Introduction to ISO 45001:2018 training course before attending this ISO 45001 Auditor Conversion training course.
