AS9120B Requirements and Transition Guidance

Description

The new AS9120:2016 (Revision B) replaces AS9120:2009 (Revision A). Organizations must transition to AS9120B by September 2018, the date that AS9120A will be withdrawn.

Our 2.5 day AS9120B Requirements and Transition Guidance course explains the underlying requirements based on ISO 9001:2015 and the additional requirements unique to AS9120B.

To help with the transition, the course highlights all the requirement changes from those in the ISO 9001:2008 and AS9120A standards. The course also includes specific transition guidance.
