Course Overview

This virtual instructor-led CQI/IRCA accredited course provides learners with the skills and knowledge that have taken many ​experienced ​auditors ​decades ​to ​develop.

The course consists of five days of interactive instruction and auditing sessions followed by a comprehensive written examination on day six. Learners will have two hours to complete the exam, which is provided and proctored in a virtual format (additional time will be added for non-native English-speaking learners, and learners with disabilities).

Learners should enter the QMS Lead Auditor course with a basic understanding of ISO 13485:2016. Mandatory prerequisite reading and a prerequisite competency assessment will be provided upon enrollment. These prerequisites must be completed in advance of the course start date.
