Internal Auditor Training

Effective internal audits are essential for ensuring compliance, improving performance, and strengthening safety and quality within aviation organizations. This training equips participants with the knowledge, skills, and structured approach needed to conduct internal audits aligned with ISO 9001 principles and aviation regulatory requirements.

Participants will explore the foundations of Quality Management Systems (QMS) in aviation, learn how to plan, execute, and follow up on audits, and develop the competence to evaluate evidence, identify non-conformities, and support continuous improvement. Practical application is emphasized through aviation-specific case discussions, ensuring that participants can apply what they learn directly in operational environments.
