The aim of this course is to inform participants about the changes to these two industry standards and the implications for the management system in place in shipping companies. You will have the opportunity to find out about the new High Level Structure of the standards and the new requirements.

The course is offered in cooperation with VenLyS (Reputation and Safety solution Services).

The course focuses on:
· Background to the standards
· New HLS – high level structure of standards
· New and changed requirements of revised standards
· Implementation of changes

Content:

The International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO) has revised its standards for quality management systems (ISO 9001:2015) and for environmental management systems (ISO 14001:2015).

The revised standards came into force in September, 2015 and require organisations to update their existing management systems progressively over the next three years.

After a presentation of the main changes the course facilitator will use group work and discussions to indicate how these changes can be implemented in your organisation.

You will gain a better understanding of how to combine the revised requirements with existing elements of ISM and how to develop your integrated management system in your organisation ashore and on board of your vessels.
