COURSE INFORMATION

Running for 14 hours over two consecutive days, our dynamic Internal environmental auditor course equips you with the knowledge and skills required to perform process audits of modern environmental management systems (EMS), in accordance with the auditing guidelines of ISO 19011.

Your specialist tutor is a practicing auditor, and chartered professional. They will guide you toward your training goal using practical anecdotal examples to help you relate the course content to your specific industry – drawing on their own wealth of experience conducting audits and working with environmental management systems.
