Program Description

This half-day program provides an introduction to the four phases of the Certificate of Recognition (COR^®) Audit:

1. Prepare
2. Perform
3. Summarize

It is designed to ensure that an organization’s COR^® Senior Management Representative and the COR^® Internal Auditor have the knowledge and resources necessary to successfully plan and begin implementation of the COR^® program.

It provides information on the program requirements such as audit team responsibilities, audit criteria, and project planning/scheduling.

This program is one of the four mandatory training requirements for the COR^® program. A representative from senior management and one permanent full-time employee designated by the employer to act as the firm’s COR^® Internal Auditor must take this prescribed training program.
