Excel Partnership Inc. recently became the first U.S. company to achieve RABQSA certification for its environmental management systems course. The certification was awarded after Excel Partnership proved that the course materials adhere to a strict set of requirements. In January, RABQSA introduced new competency-based auditor certification programs and training under the guidelines for ISO/IEC 17024:2003. Excel’s new RABQSA-certified training and certification programs can help auditors and organizations increase operating efficiency and excellence.

“The new competency-based auditor training and certification programs are a win-win solution for all,” says David Middleton, Excel Partnership president and CEO. “Excel Partnership supports RABQSA for its proactive role in developing higher standards, and looks forward to the widespread adoption of the competency-based approach and to being part of the process as the industry at large reaps its benefits.”

Excel Partnership is an SAI Global company that provides business training, consulting and self-directed learning tools to more than 200,000 people worldwide. For more information, visit www.xlp.com.
