BS 10012:2017 +A1:2018 Internal Auditor Training Course

BS 10012:2017 +A1:2018 Personal Information Management System (PIMS) is designed to help organizations better understand, manage and reduce their risks around personal information. However, the framework is not a ‘one size fits all’ solution and its implementation will vary depending upon the nature, size and complexity of the organization, and the nature of the information it processes.

Once an organization has implemented BS 10012:2017 +A1:2018, it’s imperative that it measures the effectiveness of its implementation efforts to better understand what is working well and where things might be improved. The framework has been designed with flexibility in mind, which will enable organizations to respond to the results of their measuring efforts by making adjustments to their implementation.

By attending this one-day course, you’ll understand why measurement and analysis of the framework implementation is so important and what areas the internal audit should focus on to ensure its effectiveness.

This course will provide you with sufficient information on auditing the implementation of BS 10012:2017 +A1:2018 to enable you and your organization to understand, detect, correct and monitor the effectiveness of the framework. You’ll be provided with a series of practical activities and class discussions, which will develop your internal audit ability.
