Hi,

 

I am going to attend a Lead Auditor course in near future, which I am really grateful for.

As English is not my first language i like to read some books or information to help me prepare for a course.

Can anyone suggest a book or a good website which will help me to pass and exam?

 

Cheers

Agnes
