Internal Auditor Training and Assistance

MMTC UP provides a cost-effective approach to prepare internal personnel in developing, managing, and maintaining a Quality Management System to comply with appropriate standards in preparation for formal registration. Quality Management Systems supported include ISO 9001, ISO/TS 16949, ISO 13485, and AS 9100.

A two-day Internal Auditor training program is available to develop the skills required to perform effective internal audits and maintain a successful internal audit program. Training addresses the following key topics:

  • Understanding the Audit Process
  • Roles and Responsibilities
  • Understanding Audit Requirements
  • Audit Preparation
  • Conducting the Audit
  • Reporting the Audit
  • Performing Follow-Up Audits
  • Improving the Audit Process

Case studies and group exercises are also integrated into the training to enhance participants’ understanding of key topics.

MMTC UP also offers an on-site Consultative Internal Audit for companies who need an unbiased evaluation of their current quality management system. The goal of the audit is to evaluate the structure and effectiveness of the current quality management system, identify improvement areas, and identify streamlining opportunities to better fit the quality management system to the company’s current operating environment. The consultation typically involves two days of site review with management and key staff at the company. Following a site debrief with the company, a recommendations and findings report will be provided within one week of the site review.
