This is NOT a Lead Auditor Course, so you will NOT get an ISO 9001 2015 Lead Auditor Certification, however,, the content been taught mostly resembles with what is been taught in ISO 9001 Lead QMS Auditor Course by IRCA, UK.

PS - In the bonus lecture there is a free ebook which is available on Amazon for about 4.99 $ but you can get this for free with this course!
