API Q1 10th Edition Internal Auditor Training Course Details

October 20, 2023

Overview

The 4-Day API Q1 10th Edition Internal Auditor training course encompasses the following:

• 3-days detail overview of API Q1 10th Edition Quality Management System Requirements for Organizations
providing products for the Petroleum and Natural Gas Industry
• 1-day Internal Auditing Techniques

The course is essentially three days of hands-on training on the API Q1 standard plus one day of training in auditing
techniques.

This course has been designed by Mireaux Management Solutions based on years of experience implementing API Q1
Quality Management Systems, auditing various management systems, and training on API Q1. This course focuses on
four areas:

• Background and application of API Q1 standard.


• In depth overview of each clause of the API Q1 standard, using a 3-prong approach: what the standard says, how
to implement the standard in the real world, and how to audit it.
• Explanation of changes from the API Q1 9th Edition to the 10th Edition.
• The fundamental requirements to create an Internal Audit Program and conduct Internal Audits in accordance
with ISO 19011:2018, “Guidelines for Auditing Management Systems”.

A well-structured Case Study and Role-playing audit scenarios help participants develop a hands-on understanding that
will facilitate implementation of a world-class Quality Management System and Internal Audit program.
