Conduct audits confidently and professionally

The practical training for auditors

This training is held in German.
Auditors need a solid foundation of methodology, systematics and communication skills to successfully conduct internal and external audits. Knowledge of the normative principles supports a systematic approach to the audit. At the same time, communication between those conducting the audit and those involved also plays an important role. In this training course, you will consolidate precisely these two aspects in a practice-oriented manner for your strong foundation as an auditor! Interactively and with personal practical relevance, you will acquire helpful methods and specialist knowledge for planning, conducting and reporting audits and will also be equipped for difficult discussion situations.
