ISO 9001 training helps you understand quality management: how an organisation delivers consistent products and services, meets customer needs and improves its work.
Whether you are getting started, taking on audit responsibilities or improving an existing system, choose a course that matches the work you want to do.
How much does ISO 9001 training cost?
Start by comparing courses at the same level. In these examples, internal auditor training takes two days, while full lead auditor training takes five. The extra time and different purpose matter as much as the fee.
| Course and provider source | Time and format | Price per person |
|---|---|---|
| Batalas internal auditor | 2 days; live online or classroom | From £875 + VAT |
| BSI internal auditor (advertised as 2026) | 2 days; live online or classroom | £1,465 + VAT |
| ISOQAR lead auditor | 5 days; remote £1,550, Manchester £1,650 | £1,550–£1,650 + VAT |
| Intertek lead auditor | 5 days; live online | £1,595 + VAT |
These are selected examples, not a complete market price range. Prices and dates can change. Follow the provider source for the current booking details.
For an internal audit role, compare the exercises, assessment and assumed knowledge before paying for a longer course. Batalas describes its internal auditor course as CQI and IRCA certified; BSI states that its course awards a BSI Training Academy certificate. Check which course or qualification your employer needs.
Which course is right for you?
Learn the basics
Requirements or foundation training introduces the standard and what it asks organisations to do. It can be a useful first step before further training in auditing or putting the standard into practice.
Audit your own organisation
Internal auditor training helps you check how your organisation’s quality management system is working. Look for practical exercises in planning an audit, gathering evidence and reporting your findings. Some courses expect you to know the standard already.
For example, you might review how customer complaints are handled or how a team checks the quality of its work.
Prepare to lead audits
Lead auditor training develops the skills to plan and lead audits, including working with an audit team. Check the entry requirements, practical assessment and any recognition needed for your career plans. Professional auditor registration may require experience as well as training.
Set up or improve a system
Implementation training helps you put quality management into practice. It may suit you if your role involves setting up processes, helping colleagues use them or improving an existing system. This might involve agreeing responsibilities, documenting how work is done and finding ways to improve it.
Should I book ISO 9001:2015 or 2026 training?
At our 7 September 2026 check, ISO lists the new edition as under publication. Providers are already advertising 2026 courses alongside 2015 training.
Ask which edition your chosen date teaches, whether the materials use a draft or final text, and whether later updates are included. If your organisation is certified, ask its certification body about the transition timetable. Choose around the system you work with and the training you need now.
Is a transition course enough for a beginner?
Transition training focuses on changes between editions and assumes earlier knowledge. If you are new to quality management, start by checking requirements or foundation training rather than choosing a short transition course purely on price.
Before you book
- Check the standard edition and the course level.
- Choose between live online classes, classroom learning and study at your own pace.
- Compare the duration, timetable and total price, including VAT.
- Check the entry requirements, assessment and certificate.
