Changes are possible. The course content is updated regularly.

Knowledge of quality-related activities is recommended for the course.

Once you have completed the course, you will be able to manage a QM system and have professional knowledge in the application of DIN EN ISO 9001. You will also be able to plan and set up an occupational health and safety management system and integrate it into other management systems in accordance with the Harmonized Structure. Furthermore, you will be able to assess risks in accordance with European and German environmental law and take measures to meet all technical and organizational requirements of a company in the area of environmental protection. You will be qualified to implement, operate and evaluate environmental management systems in accordance with DIN EN ISO 14001:2015 and energy management systems. Finally, you will be able to plan, implement, audit and continuously improve an integrated management system (IMS).

You also recognize the permanent opportunity for improvement, you have the necessary expertise to implement these improvements and the right understanding of a functioning lean philosophy in the company.

This course is primarily aimed at management representatives from the areas of quality, environment, energy and occupational health and safety who wish to expand their area of activity.

As a representative for integrated management systems, you will bring together different requirements from quality, environmental, occupational health and safety and energy management systems in a uniform structure, enabling more efficient management. This makes you interesting for both large and medium-sized companies in industry, trade and the service sector, as well as for organizations and authorities. Your meaningful certificate provides a detailed insight into the qualifications you have acquired and facilitates your career entry and advancement.

Specialists who also have knowledge of process optimization are in high demand across all industries and are among the most important specialists in modern companies.

After the course, you will be able to demonstrate your new skills with a TÜV Rheinland-certified qualification.

Didactic concept

Your lecturers are highly qualified both professionally and didactically and will teach you from the first to the last day (no self-study system).

You will learn in effective small groups. The courses usually consist of 6 to 25 participants. The general lessons are supplemented by numerous practical exercises in all course modules. The practice phase is an important part of the course, as it is during this time that you process what you have just learned and gain confidence and routine in its application. The final section of the course involves a project, a case study or a final exam.
