All,
Good afternoon- After a year of using Elsmar I've finally thought of a question I could not find a post on.
I have been tasked with creating a general compliance training for our Purchasing group.
I need to develop a training that helps the team understand the difference between a certification body (BSI, TUV, NQA, etc) and an accreditation body (ANAB, UKAS, etc). We have a requirement where all ISO 9001 certificates we collect must come from a certification body accredited by an IAF Member/Signatory, we have run into several issues where ISO 9001 certificates that don't meet this requirement have been accepted by our group. Obviously we do not want this, thus the need for this training.
I'm wondering if anyone has any general "compliance" trainings they have created, or if there are some commonly forgotten about topics.
Right now I have:
- Why we have this requirement (IATF)
- Certification vs Accreditation (and common examples of both)
- Certificate requirements
- How to read a Certificate
- How to check IAF for accreditor
Does anyone have any other ideas? It is hard for me to detach and think about what others may not know when it comes to compliance.
Thanks!
