After a brief web search, it appears there are many courses offered. Can anyone make a recommendation as to a training course(s) offered in the US that will lead to accreditation as an auditor?
I mislead you a bit, as the 2008 version of ISO-9001 is not official yet, so you will be training under ISO-9001:2000. If no one is familar with ISO-9001, some up front research would be recommended.
You should look into Lead and Internal Auditor training, probably include an executive overview course for the bosses. I would start by finding a Registrar in your area, they will be able to direct you to recommended trainers.
