Course Overview
This self-paced e-learning course is designed for quality professionals, managers and auditors who already have a working knowledge of ISO 9001:2015 and need to understand the changes introduced in ISO 9001:2026.
The course focuses on the revised requirements, their implications for existing Quality Management Systems (QMS) and the practical actions organisations should take to achieve a successful transition.
Rather than revisiting established quality management principles, learners will explore the key differences between the two editions, consider their impact on existing processes and documentation, and identify opportunities to strengthen QMS effectiveness.
