Training content

The ISO 14001 internal auditor training takes the audit principles of ISO 19011 as its basis and focuses on the internal audit of the environmental management system. The training covers the purpose and principles of internal audit, the audit programme and plan, environment-specific checklists, auditing environmental aspects and impacts and compliance obligations, gathering evidence in the field (interviews, observation, record review, waste, emission and monitoring records), evaluating and reporting nonconformities, and the closing and corrective action follow-up. Auditing compliance with environmental legislation and the significant environmental aspects is handled separately. The training is reinforced with case studies and practical audit exercises.

An internal auditor certificate of attendance or achievement is issued at the end of the training.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

ISO 14001 Internal Auditor Training explained

If I am an ISO 9001 internal auditor, do I need separate training for 14001?

The audit technique is shared, but the elements specific to the environmental management system (environmental aspects and impacts, legal compliance, monitoring records) call for content specific to ISO 14001. Integrated management system internal auditor training can also cover more than one standard together.

Is the certificate enough for internal audits?

Yes; the internal auditor certificate of attendance or achievement shows that the person has received the training needed to carry out ISO 14001 internal audits inside the organization. An internationally accredited auditor title also requires accredited lead auditor training.

Is the training practical?

Yes; it runs in a practical format with environment-specific checklist preparation, case studies and field audit exercises.

How long is it?

It is usually planned as 1 to 2 days; the duration can change according to the level of the participants and the content. The exact duration is set after a needs analysis.
