Sofema Aviation Services offers Quality Audit Training by an instructor with more than 20 years specific audit experience.
During the 2 Day Aviation Quality Auditing Training course the delegate is provided with a thorough understanding of the Quality Audit basics and fundamentals including an understanding of the different roles of compliance and performance auditing in aviation systems.
Performance audits look at the effectiveness of the organisations processes.
Compliance audits are designed to give assurance that activities have been performed properly in accordance with regulatory or organizational requirements. Compliance Audits are off course reactive.
Compliance audits tend to be subjective in respect that they pass or fail where as Performance audits may identify opportunities to implement improvements.
The compliance audit in fact requires a lower level of auditor competence and the audit is presented typically as a completed checklist of observed conditions at the time of the audit. We should therefore understand that compliance type auditing is not without its own shortcomings, for example – It is an unknown if the compliance will be satisfactory next week or next month.
Also note that the gaps may not be non conformity with regulatory requirements but in actual fact non conformity with the organisations desired outcome.
As a final note the management is obligated to perform an annual review but often the detail which is required to be subjective is not always available because of the lack of specific detail.
Whilst often this does not become an issue it remains a weakness. Compensation for weaknesses found in compliance audits may be found in System or Process audits.
The EASA Aviation Organization Quality System should be at the very centre of the operation, fully integrated within every department and element of the business.
Organisations which can deliver an effective performance based quality audit system, will grow and flourish.
The 2 day highly practical course offered by Sofema Aviation Services is designed specifically for all aviation professionals who need to perform audits either internal or external.
The essential purpose of the Aviation Quality Audit course is to equip the delegate with both the skills and an understanding required to manage and deliver audits across all areas of the business including all necessary sub elements.
During the 2 Day Aviation Audit training course the delegate will understand the difference between quality and safety auditing, how safety auditing is in fact entirely different from Quality auditing. Also the importance of bringing together Quality & Safety plus an understanding of Human Factors in the work place.
