Approach and methodology
This training is given remotely or in person if the situation allows it. The course will first consist of a theoretical presentation.

The calibration of the auditors allows feedback on the integration of learning. Evaluations will be carried out in the form of exams and quizzes as the training progresses. An evaluation of the participants in the conduct of the audits will be carried out during the conduct of the audits during the practical workshops.
Recommendations
Before the training, it is recommended that participants familiarize themselves with the basic principles of management systems and reflect on the audited processes in their organization. Knowledge of the requirements of a standard such as ISO 9001 is an asset to better understand the role and approach of auditing.
