During the 12-month period, you can expect to commit an average of 110 hours per month to develop your knowledge and skills. This includes the time you spend at work practising and developing your auditing skills.

 

The training we provide combines workplace training and supervision, regular meetings with the trainer, guidance sessions (e.g. Skype), attending one-day workshops undertaking structured learning activities, personal research, reading and completing your assessments.

 

You will be guided by the trainer through regular scheduled personal contacts either at work or at an acceptable external location. Your personal training plan specifies what learning is required and you are encouraged to seek supervision especially in the application of skills at work.
