The auditors were trained on four main topics. Firstly, they learned how to adjust their auditing techniques for the changes in ISO 9001:2015. Next, they learned to audit new requirements like organizational context and risk-based approaches. They also learned to audit processes and their connections with others. Lastly, they understood the importance of focusing on a process-based approach.
