Overview - An intense learning programme called the Lead Auditor Course for Medical Device Quality Management System (MD-QMS) CQI I IRCA is created to give participants the information and abilities they need to carry out successful audits of medical device businesses.
An introduction to the ISO 13485:2016 standard, which specifies the standards for a quality management system specifically for medical devices, is given at the beginning of the course. The main clauses of the standard will become clearer to the participants, and they will learn how to integrate them into their organization's QMS.
Risk management, an essential part of the QMS in the medical device business, is covered in the course. Participants will gain knowledge of how to recognise, examine, and assess hazards related to medical devices, especially those related to patient safety and potential reputational damage.
Another important component of the training is the design of quality management systems. Participants will get knowledge on how to create an efficient QMS that complies with ISO 13485:2016. To assure standard compliance and enhance the efficacy and efficiency of the QMS, this includes developing processes, policies, and work instructions.
A crucial requirement of the ISO 13485:2016 standard is internal audits. Internal audits of the QMS will be planned, prepared for, and carried out by the participants. 
They will also learn how to summarize audit findings, offer recommendations for improvement, and report on audit outcomes.
The course also covers supplier management, which is essential for making sure that the supply chain for medical devices is dependable and that the supplied goods and services adhere to the necessary standards. Participants will obtain knowledge on how to evaluate suppliers' performance in light of the needs of the organization.
