Internal Auditor Training offered by BD Food Safety Consultants is a 1 Day curriculum that is based on ISO 19011:2011 – Auditing of Quality Management Systems. This training is recognized during GFSI certification audits such as SQF and BRC. An internal audit is crucial in assuring your food safety and quality management system is working properly. Global Food Safety Initiative-recognized certification schemes such as SQF, BRC, IFS or FSSC 22000 require that internal audits are conducted at a minimum annually. An ineffective internal audit may have severe consequences for your business.

Therefore, it is important that employees are adequately trained in how to properly audit your systems. GFSI certification may not be the only reason why your organization should conduct an internal audit. Regulations such as FSMA may also trigger internal audits as part of the verification activities. Internal Auditor Training offered by BD Food Safety Consultants will help your staff to gain knowledge required to adequately assess your Food Safety System.
