Discover the requirements of AS9100D, the standard for quality management systems for the aerospace and associated industries.

This interactive 1-day Understanding AS9100 training course is designed to introduce delegates to AS9100D quality management systems.

This standard builds on the ISO 9001 standard for quality management systems, but has been extended to cover the specific requirements of organisations that design, develop or provide aviation, space and defence products and services. The detail of this standard is necessary to address the industry’s advanced requirements around factors such as safety, regulatory compliance, product complexity, traceability, supplier management, risk management, and customer expectations.

The 1-day tutor-led course is intended to provide delegates with an overview of the benefits and requirements for ISO9001 for quality management systems and the additional requirements of AS9100D.

This course can be valuable to organisations as a standalone course for delegates to understand the benefits of implementing an AS9100D management system.

The training is particularly suitable for:

  • those seeking to gain an understanding of AS9100D
  • those involved in the implementation of AS9100D
  • employees within the aviation, defence and space sectors who wish to learn more about the AS9100D quality management system
