Many organisations hold two or three certifications at once, commonly quality, environment and work health and safety and run them as one system rather than three. This course explains how that works: the shared structure that makes integration possible, what genuinely can be run once instead of three times, what must stay specific to each standard and cannot be merged away and the failure patterns that turn an integrated system into a thinner one. Written for anyone working in a multi certified organisation, with no audit background assumed.

Who This Course Is For
Workers, supervisors, managers, system coordinators and contractors in organisations holding or seeking more than one management system certification and anyone asked to work within an integrated system.
Accreditation: This is a non-accredited awareness course. Written against the harmonised structure common to the current editions of the ISO management system standards at the date of writing. It describes how integration works rather than the requirements of any single edition, so it remains applicable across edition changes. Confirm the editions your own certificates are held against with your certification body. It builds general awareness of how integrated management systems work and does not issue a formal qualification. Completing it does not certify you, does not certify your organisation and is not a substitute for an audit by an accredited certification body, for your organisation's own procedures or for the laws and obligations that apply where you work.
