Courses Syllabus

Introduction

This interactive programme has been designed to enable delegates to learn more about the latest international development and best practice in implementing and operating a structured management systems approach to manage key operating areas of businesses e.g. quality management, environmental management, occupational safety & health.

The programme uses as its core the model offered in PAS99 – specification of common management systems requirements as a framework for integration as a structure for integration.  This model is fully consistent with the new ISO requirements and will enable delegates to prepare for the inevitable transition requirements in the near future.
