About the course

Auditing plays a critical role in helping organisations evaluate whether processes, systems, and controls are operating effectively and meeting defined requirements. Our Introduction to Auditing eLearn gives you a practical introduction to auditing concepts, audit types, audit principles, and the audit process, with a focus on management system auditing and the guidance provided in ISO 19011:2026. You will explore how audits support assurance, compliance, improvement, and risk management, while developing an understanding of evidence gathering, audit findings, auditor conduct, and the full audit life cycle.

What our students say about our courses

“The virtual classroom coupled with an enthusiastic trainer made the course easy to run through and as good as any face-to-face courses I have ever attended.”

“Honestly thought it was gonna be boring. I was very wrong! Very engaging and informative. Loved all 5 days and will be back for more courses!”

“Let’s be honest – ISO standards aren’t exactly edge-of-your-seat material. But this course proved that with the right coach, even clauses and compliance can be compelling! Packed with real-world examples, well-paced sessions, and just the right amount of workshops, it was surprisingly enjoyable. Highly recommended!”

“It was clearly evident that the lead auditor trainer had significant industry-related experience in auditing. He was able to keep the class fully engaged with personal interaction and reinforce learnings. Getting full copies of the standards was amazing, the catering and the training location in Brisbane was perfect.”

“The trainer’s experience and real-life examples gave great context to the course material. The 5 days allowed the material to be digested in a way that was not overwhelming. I’d definitely recommend the course to others.”
