Before and during the course FAQs
The Auditor Migration training course is certified by the CQI and IRCA, the body representing quality professionals, and satisfies the requirements for those who wish to maintain their IRCA OH&SMS auditor registration.
Delegates receive a certificate completion to provide evidence of their enhanced auditing skills.
The course is also equivalent to 14 hours CPD.
We will send you or the colleague who booked your course a certificate after the course ends, provided you completed the training and all invoices have been paid.
You will be able to use the certificate as evidence of your newly gained knowledge and skills by adding it to your CV or your LinkedIn profile, as well as sharing it with your colleagues.
