Maria Habib

Short Description:

Small businesses must meet the same requirements for ISO certification as mid-size and large businesses and resourcefulness amidst dynamic change is important to ensure successful outcomes. Did a major change create an opportunity for you to perform remote audits in your small business? This presentation will share best practices about how small businesses can ensure remote audits are run effectively, efficiently, and fun. The presentation will highlight how MS Teams can be used to organize the audit's pre- and post-activities, as well as other useful tips to help organize the audit process.
