Over the course of the three-day class, attendees learned the ins and outs of the ISO 9001:2008 standard using Mireaux’s four-point approach, focusing on what the standard says, what it means, how to implement it in an organization, and how to audit against it. Lecture sessions taught by Mireaux’s founder and president, Miriam Boudreaux, were reinforced with hands-on workshops, including one where trainees worked in teams to create miniature football goalposts, then assess their performance and file nonconformance reports as needed.
“Miriam knows her stuff, that is for sure,” said Alex Spriggs of Zupt, LLC. “I came in knowing nothing about internal auditing and now am confident in my role in my workplace as an internal auditor.” Attendees listening intently.
This class was the first held at Mireaux’s brand-new training facility, remodeled to provide a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere for learning.
“The training room at Mireaux was the perfect size,” said Trisha Boyle of Langham Creek Machine Works, Inc., a Mireaux consulting client. “Miriam did a great job of covering an extraordinary amount of material and really kept us on schedule.”
Mireaux would like to thank all the trainees for a job well done and looks forward to an extensive course schedule planned for the remainder of 2013, including classes regarding ISO 14001, OHSAS 18001, API Specification Q1, Root Cause Analysis, Document Control, and, by popular demand, another section of the sold-out ISO 9001 QMS Internal Auditor course.
