Our Sue Snyder has joined an elite group with her successful certification as an IAQG (International Aerospace Quality Group) sanctioned aerospace auditor. This designation makes her an expert in aerospace standards. As a certified aerospace auditor, Sue can conduct third-party audits to recommend certification/registration to AS9100C and/or re-certification for all aviation, space and defense organizations who are transitioning from AS9100B to AS9100C (see next article for more).

Those of you who work in aviation, space and defense know how critical it is to have the latest standards-based management systems in place.

This highly regulated and competitive environment demands uniform standards at all stages of the supply chain. In fact, major aerospace manufacturers and suppliers worldwide require compliance and/or registration to AS9100 as a condition of doing business with them. Big changes are taking effect. Are you ready?

OHSAS 18001 is the internationally recognized assessment specification for occupational health and safety management systems. Many organizations are implementing an occupational health and safety management system as part of their risk management strategy to address changing legislation and protect their workforce.

ISO 18001:2007 promotes a safe and healthy working environment by providing a framework that allows your organization to consistently identify and control its health and safety risks, reduce the potential for accidents, aid legislative compliance and improve overall performance. 

Our courses in late February include a two-day course on the concepts of the ISO 18001:2007 standard and the principles and practices of effective internal audits, a course to become internal quality systems auditor, and a course to become lead auditor.
