This comprehensive self paced online course prepares you to plan and conduct internal audits of an artificial intelligence management system against ISO/IEC 42001:2023. You will learn to carry an internal audit from initiation through to reporting and follow up, using ISO 19011:2026 as your auditing framework.
The course follows a realistic, scenario based approach, so you practise the internal audit lifecycle the way it happens in the field: planning the audit, gathering and evaluating evidence, raising findings, and reporting to management. It opens with a concise recap of ISO/IEC 42001:2023 so you are grounded in the standard before you audit against it.
Key concepts covered
- The ISO/IEC 42001:2023 artificial intelligence management system, in brief
- The seven principles of auditing and the audit lifecycle
- Audit initiation, scope, criteria and the audit plan
- Reviewing the AIMS scope, AI risk assessment, AI system impact assessment and Statement of Applicability
- Evidence gathering, and distinguishing evidence from inference
- Writing Major NC, Minor NC, and OFI statements, and verifying corrective action
Becoming an internal auditor in ISO/IEC 42001:2023 and ISO 19011:2026 strengthens your value to any organisation governing artificial intelligence responsibly. This course enables you to:
- Plan and conduct internal audits with confidence and consistency
- Surface the issues that matter and help reduce AI risk
- Help your organisation stay audit ready for certification and surveillance
- Take a clear next step in your auditing career, including towards the Lead Auditor qualification

A quick look inside
By the end of this course you will be able to:
- Explain the purpose of an artificial intelligence management system and of internal auditing
- Plan, conduct, report, and follow up an internal audit in accordance with ISO 19011:2026
- Prepare an audit plan from the requirements of ISO/IEC 42001:2023
- Review the AIMS scope, AI risk assessment, AI risk treatment, AI system impact assessment and Statement of Applicability
- Gather and evaluate objective evidence, and distinguish evidence from inference
- Write Major NC, Minor NC, and OFI statements that are factual and defensible
- Verify the effectiveness of corrective action
This course also explains how ISO certification works. You will learn what ISO certification is, the role of accredited certification bodies and accreditation, the two stage certification audit, and how organisations achieve and maintain certification through surveillance and recertification.
This course is designed for anyone who plans, conducts, or supports internal audits of a management system, including:
- New and developing internal auditors
- People who implement or maintain the artificial intelligence management system
- AI, data, governance, risk and compliance staff, and consultants
- Anyone preparing to progress to the Lead Auditor qualification
- Those helping their organisation prepare for certification or surveillance audits
There are no prerequisites for this course.
A working knowledge of the current version of ISO/IEC 42001 is recommended and will help you get the most from the auditing material. If you are new to the standard, you can build this foundation through our ISO/IEC 42001:2023 Foundation course. This course also includes a concise recap of the standard before the auditing modules.
Some of our courses share the same lessons. If you have already done those lessons in another course with us, you will not have to watch them again. You just do what is new in this course. This happens automatically when you enrol.
This is not the formal Recognition of Prior Learning that exempts you from a qualification, and it does not mean there is nothing left to do. It saves you time, while the units that make up your course remain mandatory to complete.
You will need a computer, laptop, or tablet with a reliable internet connection. The course works in any modern web browser, such as Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Mozilla Firefox, or Apple Safari. For the best experience, keep your browser updated to the latest version.

Speaking from my own subjective perspective: I found lectures of this type easy to follow back when I was at university, but now—as an adult who has taken various other courses—I believe that interactive content is better absorbed and remembered than a dry lecture. Nevertheless, the speaker was interesting to listen to, and the fact that I passed the test on the first attempt is the best possible measure of the lecture's quality.

I found the Audit Workshop very interesting, but also quite challenging, with a lot of knowledge and information to take in. For me, some of the material was a little easier to relate to because I work for a company that is already ISO 13485 certified, and I have my own copy of the standard that I can refer to. I am also audited every year by BSI and several times by our customers, so I already have some experience with the audit process from the other side. However, the workshop gave me a much better understanding of the auditor’s perspective and helped me put my existing experience into a broader context. I really enjoyed the course and found it very useful.

It was good class. I would have liked a little more time on the standard and less on auditing. Otherwise the speaker was engaging and the content good. If I would have been a new auditor; it would have provided me with lots of insights! As an experienced auditor it did a great job of reviewing the basics!

I liked the way the lecturer presented the changes to the standard and I feel that I learnt a lot. I also liked the materials I received, as they were clear, useful, and easy to follow. Thank you for this informative and enjoyable training!
