Who Should Attend?
This course will benefit experienced auditors looking to upgrade their audit skills and become familiar with the requirements of both ISO 9001:2015 and IATF 16949:2016. Those new to auditing will also gain the knowledge to conduct audits to the Automotive Industry requirements. Delegates will learn to audit to the requirements of the standards using the automotive process approach.

Prior Knowledge
While there are no formal pre-requisites, it is strongly suggested for delegates to gain the most from this course, a knowledge of ISO 9001:2015.  We recommend our E-learning ISO 9001:2015 as a minimum level of awareness of the current quality standard associated with this course.

Course Objectives
The course utilises a variety of teaching methods including interactive workshops, simulated audits, tutorials and case studies. These methods facilitate the development of the necessary skills to conduct an effective internal audit including: 

• Develop practical audit skills to facilitate value-added audits 
• Enhance evaluation and communication skills necessary to conduct effective audits
• Refine reporting skills to document value-added audit findings, and validate corrective actions for effectiveness 

This course utilises the newly revised IATF16949:2016 as the reference standard for Automotive Quality Management Systems. By attending this course, delegates will gain an understanding how to audit using the automotive process approach, as well as the ability to audit the customer-specific requirements defined by the OEM's.

• Co-ordinating an effective process-based audit program
• Prioritising audit frequency based on risk

What are the Benefits?
Organisations that are currently registered to ISO/TS 16949:2009 must complete their transition to IATF 16949:2016 by September 2018 or they run the risk of having their registration lapse which could have implications on their ability to continue as an approved supplier to the OEM’s.

This new revision has expanded the requirement for suppliers to automotive industry to become registered to IATF 16949:2016 rather than simply demonstrate conformance. These requirements pertain to any organisation that performs design and development, production and when relevant, installation and service of automotive-related products.

Audit of suppliers is a new requirement of IATF 16949:2016. The audit methods and principles learned in this course are directly applicable to supplier auditing. Specific situations where supplier auditing may differ from internal audits will also be discussed during the course.
