Training Course Outline:

The upcoming revision of ISO 9001:2026 brings new emphasis on risk management, sustainability, quality culture, digital transformation, and ethics & integrity within quality management systems. For the food industry, these changes represent both a challenge and an opportunity to strengthen systems, improve resilience, and align with evolving customer and regulatory expectations.
