In a professional world where competitiveness and excellence are the order of the day, continuous training is an essential lever for maintaining and improving employee skills. The Chartered Quality Institute (CQI) and theInternational Register of Certificated Auditors (IRCA ) are among the most widely recognized training courses in the field of quality management, distinguished by their rigor and relevance. With this recognition, the AFNOR Group and its UK subsidiary offer these training courses worldwide, thanks to its network of competent trainers. These courses are specially designed for professionals wishing to excel in the field of quality and management auditing.

  • A guarantee of competence and professionalism
    CQI and IRCA training courses are internationally recognized and regarded as a standard of excellence in the industry. They enable quality professionals to demonstrate their competence and commitment to industry best practice. By obtaining CQI and IRCA certification, quality auditors attest to their ability to conduct audits in accordance with the most stringent international standards.
  • Meeting the requirements of international standards
    Quality standards, such as ISO 9001 for quality management systems, require companies to carry out regular internal audits and to be able to successfully pass external audits. CQI and IRCA training courses prepare auditors to understand these standards in depth and apply them effectively in their work.
  • Continuous improvement and competitive advantage
    Companies that invest in quality training for their employees demonstrate a commitment to continuous improvement. CQI and IRCA-trained auditors add value to their organizations by identifying opportunities for improvement and helping to implement effective solutions. This can lead to improved operational performance, reduced costs and, ultimately, a competitive edge in the marketplace.
  • Career development for professionals
    For individuals, CQI and IRCA certifications open the door to new career opportunities and professional advancement. They are often a prerequisite for high-level positions in quality and auditing. What's more, these certifications are recognized by employers worldwide, enabling greater professional mobility.
  • Quality assurance for customers and stakeholders
    Customers and stakeholders can have confidence in companies that employ CQI and IRCA certified auditors. This ensures that the products and services supplied meet the highest quality standards, and that risks are managed appropriately. This strengthens the company's reputation and customer confidence.
