CQI and IRCA ISO 27001 Lead Auditor Conversion Training (A2593) Virtual - Tutor Led (Information Security)

3 Days Level 3 – Advanced

All of our courses are being held virtually by our expert tutors. Book online below to secure your place.

An immersive three-day course for information security professionals who have successfully completed a CQI and IRCA approved (or an acceptable alternative) Lead Auditor course and wish to add the skills and knowledge to audit ISMS. This course can lead to CQI and IRCA certification which is globally recognised.

**Please note that we encourage all our delegates sitting on virtual courses to have access to a webcam. This will enable you to interact with both the tutor and other course attendees.**

Course aims

The aim of this course is to provide delegates with the knowledge and skills required to perform first, second and third-party audits of information security management systems against ISO/IEC 27001 (with ISO/IEC 27002), in accordance with ISO 19011 and ISO 17021, as applicable. To become a registered Lead Auditor, delegates must have attended and passed a lead auditor course relating to another management standard, e.g. QMS, EMS or OH&S.

"Great course and hosted brilliantly. The virtual course is also a fabulous option, arguably better. Team separations were very practical and if anything we chatted more, longer and better than an attended course." Roger Newell, Associate Consultant at Risk Evolves Ltd

It’s an essential course for those wishing to register as a lead Auditor with the International Register of Certified Auditors (IRCA).

As a prerequisite to this course, and to provide a good understanding of the terms and processes within the standard, you have FREE access to our NQA ISO 27001:2022 ISMS (Information Security) E-Learning Introduction Training.
