About AS9100

With AS9100 certification, organisations demonstrate to their clients and suppliers that they are committed to delivering quality products and services. Many of the world’s leading aerospace organisations require their suppliers to be certified to the AS9100 Standard as a condition of the business.

AS9100 is commonly used by the aviation, defence, and space industries, with a range of military, commercial, and industrial applications.

Available AS9100 Courses

We offer 4 AS9100 training courses for Aerospace and Defense Management Systems.

Our Introduction and Foundation courses are entry-level and provide knowledge-based training aimed at anyone new to AS9100 who needs to understand the purpose of a quality management system and the requirements of the Standard.

Alternatively, those with a more active role in auditing may prefer to attend one of our AS9100 skills-based training course which teaches delegates how to conduct an internal, supplier, or third-party audit.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What is an audit?

    This is a common question alongside ‘What does an audit do?’ - put simply, it’s about checking that what’s supposed to happen is happening, not just in terms of rules being followed but also in the effectiveness of processes and systems, for example, are they delivering the results we expect them to deliver?

    For more information, see our video 'What is an Audit?'

  • What is a quality management system?

    It’s often thought that a Quality Management System is simply a quality manual, but this isn’t the case; this misconception is based on the older version of ISO 9001 (prior to the latest 2015 version), which required organisations to have a quality manual, giving quality professionals the impressions that the Quality Manual was the Quality Management System. But a QMS is far more than that; essentially, it is about people and processes working together to establish policy, set objectives, and then plan how to achieve them. Documented information such as manuals, procedures, templates, or even operational software supports this achievement. A QMS is designed to meet the requirements of customers primarily but also other interested parties such as legal authorities, industry bodies, and shareholders.

    For more information, watch our video 'What is a management System?'.

  • What is the difference between a process and a procedure?

    A process converts inputs into outputs (or results); and a procedure dictates how the process will be carried out.

    For instance, we may all have different ways of making a cup of tea but the process always starts with the tea and water (input) and the result is always a cup of tea (output).

  • What is a supplier audit?

    Although a Supplier Audit is not typically a requirement of ISO Management System Standards, it can be a useful way of evaluating supplier capability, conformity, and performance. For instance, conducting an audit to see if a supplier has the capability to take on a new commission, is meeting contractual requirements, or is performing to contractual targets based on key performance indicators. A supplier audit comprises interviewing, observing and gathering evidence, and can be conducted by internal auditors or lead auditors. (Note: there may be organization or customer requirements in place that demand Lead Auditor status.)

    For more support, view our Supplier Auditor course.

  • What does an internal auditor do?

    An internal auditor collects evidence of conformity by interviewing personnel, reviewing documented information, and observing process activities. While doing this they may identify nonconformities or flag potential issues.
