To successfully complete an auditor course, you need to meet certain levels of education and work experience. However, that is usually not a barrier for interested learners.
The qualification and experience requirements set out in our Introductory Course, ‘e-Training with deGRANDSON Global’, are not mandatory.
You do not have to provide us with any evidence of meeting them. With that said, you may face some degree of struggle with the corresponding certification courses.
Qualifications:
Depending on the Grade chosen there are varying levels of minimum educational qualification recommended.
Recognition of Prior Learning
Learners who do not meet the education requirements may be able to successfully complete the chosen course. This is possible if they’ve achieved a level of literacy and numeric comprehension that enables the effective conduct and management of QMS audits through work experience or other means.
Work Experience:
For the higher Grades, experience at managerial level are advised.
To open the ‘e-Training with deGRANDSON Global’ course (it’s free of charge) and get the full details on pre-qualification, please select the ‘Try It Now’ button on the left. After that, just try to follow the ‘Try it Now’ instructions.
Duration varies from 15 minutes to 1 hour. We tried our best not to chop up topics to give standard periods for lessons to make them more comprehensive.

Payment
No problem.
During the sequence to pay via PayPal, you will be offered the chance to pay for your chosen ISO course with a debit or credit card.
This occurs at the point where you are asked to log in to PayPal or create a new account. Ignore this and choose the Debit/Credit Card option.
The sequence of screens is shown here.
Note
We chose PayPal for processing payments to provide you with the maximum protection we cand find. It is also so we won’t have unncessary access to your data.
By choosing PayPal as a payment option, you wouldn’t need to give us your credit or debit card details.
I’m afraid our policy is to accept payment only through our PayPal account, which provides automated accounts (including foreign exchange) and protection for both you as purchaser and for ourselves as the seller.
However, there are many ways you can pay through the PayPal system, namely,
- With a PayPal account from funds in that account
- With a PayPal account direct from your bank account (no credit/debit card required)
- With a Debit Card – no PayPal account required
- With a Credit Card – no PayPal account required
- If none of these options suit, payment using one of these methods can be made on your behalf by a colleague or a friendly bank manager.
The screen sequence for Debit/Credit Card payment can be found here.
If you are a UK resident, you can spread payment over several months using PayPal Credit.

Troubleshooting Tips
To enroll in these courses, you need to fulfill one of these criteria:
- Either you have completed a course with us before,
- Or you have successfully completed a pre-test.
For Internal Auditor grade, the free pre-test course is Course 004X. For Lead Auditor grade, it’s Course 006X.
So, the usual reason for the blank pop-up? It’s a new customer who hasn’t done the pre-test.
The PayPal page opens in a new browser window and is being blocked by the browser’s pop-up blocker settings.
Solution: Enable pop-ups to be displayed in your browser settings.
The payment can be rejected because of an erroneous spoofing check made during the order entry process. This is a feature we are trying to have removed as it has been proven 100%% WRONG to date. And we apologise for the inconvenience.
There is another way you can enroll, which is by going directly to our LMS (Learning Management System) that delivers our Courses.
