Getting the best out of being accredited by IANZ requires all staff to be familiar with the standards and processes that well-managed laboratories and inspection bodies operate to. That is why IANZ provides training in all aspects of accreditation.
Our courses range in duration from one to five days. Whilst all of them are hosted face to face mode (mainly in Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch), we also run most of them virtually via Zoom. The same courses can also be held within a company, which has the advantage of the course being tailored to suit the company and savings in the cost.
In house training courses. These are workplace training courses that can be run on your site. We can customise most training courses to meet your training needs.
Online training courses. We have an online course for Technical Experts introducing them to the IANZ assessment process, available free. To access the course visit https://ianz.teachable.com/.
