Workshop Overview

An effective internal audit system is key to keeping any food safety management setup running smoothly. That’s exactly what this workshop is all about – giving you the tools and know-how to carry out audits that actually add value to your organisation.

Designed with beginners in mind, the workshop is hands-on and practical. We’ll use real examples, case studies, and interactive activities to help you feel confident in your auditing role. By the end, you’ll walk away with simple techniques to make the audit process smoother, more constructive, and even a little less daunting – for both you and the people you’re auditing.

Learning is made fun & practical

At Progress Excellence, we do training a little differently. Whether it’s food safety, quality, health and safety, environmental, or laboratory systems – we make sure it’s practical, relevant, and easy to put into action.

  • We use real, sector-specific examples so the content actually makes sense in your world. Our sessions are interactive and hands-on, with activities that help turn theory into something you can apply straight away.

  • Plus, we share ready-to-use templates and implementation plans to make your job easier. Our goal? To give you the skills and confidence to not just understand the requirements, but to actually apply them and improve your systems in a meaningful way.

The Progress Excellence Approach

  • We break down internal auditing using the ISO 19011:2018 guidelines – but in a way that’s simple and easy to understand.

  • Our course material is designed to feel like the real thing, with practical examples and activities that mirror the audit process. Along the way, you’ll discover just how much an auditor’s behaviour can influence the outcome of both internal and supplier audits.
