Virtual COR Internal Auditor Training

Upcoming COR Internal Auditor Training Sessions
Next virtual COR internal auditor training session: May 11, 2023

The COR Internal Auditor Training is designed specifically for COR registered and certified employers in the tourism and hospitality industry in British Columbia.

One of the first steps to becoming COR certified is to identify an internal champion who will lead the process for your organization and become a knowledgeable resource about COR.

The COR internal auditor is an employee of an organization who completes the auditor training to conduct internal COR maintenance audits and develop the program. This individual should be familiar with all aspects of your safety management system. Depending on the size and complexity of your operation, you may decide that more than one internal auditor is needed, to share the COR auditing responsibilities.

The COR internal auditor training consists of approximately 13 hours of training; between 3-6 hours online, self-paced learning, followed by a 6 hour live virtual session, some homework, group case study work, and a separate consultation with our expert facilitator, to make sure you’re ready for your student audit.

Please allocate the whole day on the day of the training (9:00 am to 5:00 pm PST) to join the virtual session through Zoom, complete your homework (offline) and attend your one-on-one consultation with the facilitator.

The training covers the following:

• an overview of the COR program
• an in-depth look at the individual COR audit elements
• how to prepare for a student audit
• how to conduct an audit using the go2HR COR audit tool: documentation, observation and interview techniques
• how to prepare a COR audit submission: scoring audit questions and writing notes
• post-audit activities and follow-up: what happens next
• how to maintain your status as a COR internal auditor

What you need on the day of the training:

• Desktop or laptop with a reliable internet connection
• Quiet desk/office space to avoid interruptions
• A microphone and speakers with clear audio
• A camera is recommended, but not essential

Soft copies of the training materials will be provided to you and these may be downloaded and saved locally.
