Formerly called Internal Auditor Training: This three-day safety auditor training course is designed for those who will be evaluating the effectiveness of their company health and safety program. Program audits are a very cost-effective method of measuring existing management systems. In this program, you will learn how quality audits reduce risk through a systems approach that maintains a focus on accident reduction.

Participants will have structured class activities during each morning of the three days.  Afternoons are intended to be used to work on their “student” audit which must be completed within 2 weeks of the last day of the course.
