Frequently asked questions

ISO 22301 Internal Auditor Training teaches you how to audit a Business Continuity Management System (BCMS) against ISO 22301:2019 requirements, using ISO 19011 auditing guidance. You learn BCMS fundamentals, required documented information, and how to plan, conduct, and close internal audits. The focus is on collecting evidence, classifying findings, and writing practical audit reports with improvement recommendations, so your organisation can maintain and improve its continuity controls.

This course suits business continuity managers, risk and compliance staff, internal auditors, and department coordinators who support continuity planning. It is also useful if you help maintain BCMS documents, run exercises, or participate in management reviews.

Corporate training is typically delivered as a cohort so teams learn the same audit method and reporting style. You can run a single batch for one department or a cross-functional group that mirrors your BCMS structure. The sessions follow the module sequence—BCMS fundamentals, ISO 22301 requirements, then auditing principles and procedures—so everyone builds capability in the same order. This approach helps standardise checklists, reduce interpretation gaps, and speed up audit closures.

You cover BCMS fundamentals, scope, objectives, and the general requirements mapped to clauses 4 to 8, as listed in the outline. The training connects each clause to what you should verify during internal audits, including documented information and operational continuity controls.

Yes. The course includes remote auditing methods alongside on-site techniques. You learn how to plan remote evidence collection, conduct structured interviews, review documented information, and maintain traceability of findings. For corporate environments with multiple locations, remote methods can reduce travel time while still producing defensible conclusions. The key is linking every finding to objective evidence and keeping records organised for follow-up and management review.
