The course references ISO 9001 for QMS requirements, ISO 19011 for audit guidance, and ISO/IEC 17021-1 for certification process alignment.
ISO 9001 Lead Auditor training is centered on auditing Quality Management Systems against ISO 9001 requirements. Participants learn how to interpret ISO 9001 requirements from an audit perspective and evaluate conformity using structured evidence.The course also references ISO 19011, which provides guidelines for auditing management systems, including audit principles, managing audit programs, and conducting audits. In addition, it references the certification process according to ISO/IEC 17021-1, aligning the training to common expectations in third-party certification contexts.This combination supports auditors who need to connect requirement interpretation, audit execution, and certification-style process discipline within a single audit approach.
Using ISO 19011 as the operating model keeps audits consistent across teams and sites. ISO/IEC 17021-1 alignment helps you think in certification terms: audit staging, competence, evidence management, and decision support. When you pair that with strong ISO 9001 requirement interpretation, your audits become both defensible and actionable.
