Audit process

(Hello, the book gives you a slight idea of an internal audit but does not explain each step in detail, neither what documents are needed or generated, nor how they should be generated. Can you help me with this?)

Answer: Since you already have read the book, for a detailed explanation about the steps of an internal audit, I suggest you to take a look at one of our free online courses about internal audit:
-ISO 27001:2013 Internal Auditor Course https://advisera.com/training/iso-27001-internal-auditor-course/
-Curso Auditor Interno ISO 9001:2015 https://advisera.com/es/formacion/curso-auditor-interno-iso-9001/
-Curso Auditor Interno ISO 14001:2015 https://advisera.com/es/formacion/curso-de-auditor-interno-iso-14001/

These courses have modules specifically devised to present an overview of the requirements of t he related standard and details of the internal auditing process, which is basically the same for all of them.

Regarding required documentation, ISO Management Standards released since 2012 do not demand too much, only an Internal audit program (clause 9.2) and the results of internal audits (clause 9.2). For generating this documentation it is recommended that you define a procedure for internal audit (but this procedure is not mandatory by any standard). To help you with this documentation, I suggest you to take a look at the free demo of our internal audit toolkits:
-ISO 27001/ISO 22301 Internal Audit Toolkit https://advisera.com/27001academy/iso-27001-22301-internal-audit-documentation-toolkit/
-ISO 9001:2015 Internal Audit Toolkit https://advisera.com/9001academy/iso-9001-2015-internal-audit-toolkit/
-ISO 14001:2015 Internal Audit Toolkit https://advisera.com/14001academy/iso-14001-2015-internal-audit-toolkit/

These toolkits contains the following documents: Internal Audit Checklist, Procedure for Internal Audit, Annual Internal Audit Program, and Internal Audit Report . With these you will be able to properly plan and perform internal audits.

This article will provide you further explanation about audit process considering ISO 27001:
