Introduction

ISO 9001 – The Basics
Our course begins with an overview of ISO 9001, providing a clear understanding of what it is and how it is used. We then take a high-level view of how the standard applies to different organizations, highlighting the potential benefits they can gain from it and the certification process. Next, we explore the impact that a well-implemented ISO 9001 system has on employees and their work. Lastly, we share valuable insights on the pitfalls that need to be avoided to ensure the success of ISO 9001.

The Pros and Cons of ISO 9001
In this section, we assist you in weighing the pros and cons of implementing ISO 9001, helping you make an informed decision. Additionally, we provide strategies to mitigate any potential downsides that may arise. We start by reviewing the external and internal benefits that certification brings, and then we analyze the potential challenges. Finally, we provide important strategies for success that will guide you towards reaping the full benefits of ISO 9001.

The Foundation and Structure of ISO 9001
This part of the course explores two key aspects of ISO 9001 that are crucial for a comprehensive understanding of the standard: Annex SL and the Quality Management Principles. We first explain the importance of Annex SL in the context of management systems. Next, we delve into each of the seven Quality Management Principles that form the foundation of ISO 9001, highlighting how they inform the requirements of the standard. By grasping these principles, you will be better equipped to interpret and apply the requirements in a meaningful way, ensuring that ISO 9001 truly works for your company.

The Process Approach and PDCA Cycle
At the heart of ISO 9001 lie the Process Approach and the PDCA Cycle, two concepts that complement each other and greatly contribute to maximizing the benefits of ISO 9001. Through our lessons, which are enriched with real-life examples from various industries, you will gradually develop a deep understanding of these important concepts, enabling you to effectively leverage ISO 9001 for your organization.

Overview of the ISO 9001:2015 Requirements
As an executive, it is not necessary to dive into every ISO 9001 requirement. Instead, we provide a condensed overview of the seven requirement sections, focusing on the essence of each. By doing so, we highlight how the standard promotes good business practices and how you can apply the requirements to drive excellence throughout your organization.

ISO 9001 – An Implementation Overview
In this section, we provide an overview of the five steps involved in the implementation of ISO 9001, explaining the details of each step. We also emphasize the crucial role that leaders play in the implementation project and how they contribute to its success.

The Role of Top Management in ISO 9001
The final part of the course is dedicated to addressing the specific responsibilities of executives in relation to ISO 9001. We begin by providing an overview of the critical role that leaders play in the quality management system. From there, we delve into the practical details of what executives can do before, during, and after the implementation phase to ensure that ISO 9001 becomes a long-term success for their organization.

Additional Information

Difference between Executive and Manager Training

Both the ISO 9001:2015 Executive Training and Manager Training offer specific training tailored to their intended audience. It is crucial to select the appropriate course based on your role and responsibilities within the organization.

ISO 9001:2015 Executive Training
This training is designed to guide corporate leaders on ensuring ISO success and carrying out their specific responsibilities under the standard. It is recommended for those involved in strategic decisions for the company who are not directly managing staff, such as high-ranking managers and VPs.

ISO 9001:2015 Manager Training
This training is specifically designed for department managers and team leaders. It instructs them on the optimal application of ISO 9001 within their respective departments. The course provides abundant practical tips and best practices applicable to operational functions. If you directly oversee departments or teams, including 1-person departments without additional staff, this course is recommended. In addition, this course is also ideal for QC inspectors.
Sufficiency for Executive Training

This course fulfills the ISO training needs of executives. Some additional, situation-specific guidance may later be provided by a member of the implementation team.
Bulk Purchases for Corporate Buyers

Corporate buyers have the option to make bulk purchases of our online training. This feature allows them to conveniently enroll learners and monitor their progress while allowing the learners to take the course independently and at their preferred schedule. Here's how it works:

Select the desired quantity of courses: Corporate buyers can choose the number of courses they want to purchase, such as 10 courses, and complete the purchase.

Receive login instructions: After completing the purchase, the buyer will receive an instant email with login instructions to the online course management dashboard.

Enroll learners: The buyer can enter the name and email address for each learner, and the system will send them their login instructions for the course.

Independent learning: Each learner can now independently take the course, choosing when and where to study. They have the flexibility to pause and resume the self-paced course as needed and switch between different devices. Course access is available for 3 months from the date of enrollment, with extensions possible upon request.

Track progress: Corporate buyers can easily track each learner's progress through their online dashboard.

Digital certificates: Upon successful completion of the course, learners will receive a digital certificate that can be shared and retained as evidence of training.
Course Access

There is a 3-month time restriction to complete the course from the date of enrollment. In our experience, this timeframe has been more than enough. However, course access can be extended for as long as needed upon request.
Optional Exam and Certificate Options

We offer an optional final assessment. Learners have two options:

Certificate of Attendance
By completing all the lessons, learners will receive a Certificate of Attendance, fulfilling the ISO 9001:2015 requirement on training records.

Certificate of Attainment
Learners also have the option to take an online multiple-choice exam to receive a Certificate of Attainment. This certificate serves as evidence of training and demonstrates the acquisition of related competencies.

Both types of certificates include blockchain verification and can be digitally shared on platforms like LinkedIn and other social media.
Exam Retakes and Results

Learners can take the optional final exam, free of charge, as many times as needed to achieve a passing score. The passing score for the exam is 70%. After answering all the questions, learners will receive their final score and a comprehensive review of the results. They can also retake any lessons to brush up on their knowledge.
Accreditation by Exemplar Global

9001Simplified is an Exemplar Global Certified Training Provider and Examiner. We are authorized to issue Certificates of Attainment displaying the Exemplar Global certification mark and Competency Units.

However, it's important to note that Exemplar Global currently does not have Competency Units applicable to executive training. As a result, the ISO 9001:2015 Executive Training course is not Exemplar Global accredited. Nonetheless, you can rest assured that we developed this course using the same high standards applied to our accredited courses.
Difference between Online Training and Live Virtual Course

The difference between our online training and a live virtual course lies in flexibility and subsequent effectiveness.

A live virtual course resembles a classroom presentation but is conducted remotely via video conferencing technology. While you can take the live virtual course from anywhere, it requires specific timing and runs concurrently with all other enrolled learners. This option provides real-time interaction with instructors and other participants.

The benefits of our online training include unrestricted access for studying at your convenience, allowing you to manage your schedule. You have the autonomy to decide the duration and frequency of your study sessions, even revisiting lessons as needed. This flexibility enables personalized learning at your preferred pace. Our online training ensures effective learning outcomes while providing the convenience of independent study.
