Good auditors do more than follow a checklist.

They know how to:

β€’ Ask effective questions
β€’ Identify risk
β€’ Spot trends and recurring issues
β€’ Put people at ease during audits
β€’ Drive continual improvement

Strong auditing skills can make a real difference to food safety culture and compliance across a business. Our Auditing Skills course provides the theory, practical skills and confidence necessary to conduct an effective audit.

As part of Learning at Work Week, we’ve been thinking about the different ways people learn across the food industry.

Sometimes the most valuable learning doesn’t come from a textbook or training course.

It comes from:
➑️ a colleague
➑️ a production issue
➑️ an audit
➑️ a near miss
➑️ a conversation on site

What’s one of the most valuable things you’ve learned during your career in food manufacturing?

This week is Learning at Work Week β€” something we know a lot about at VWA.Following this year’s theme, β€œMany ways to lea...

This week is Learning at Work Week β€” something we know a lot about at VWA.

Following this year’s theme, β€œMany ways to learn”, we’re exploring:
🟒 the importance of accessible and practical learning
🟒 how classroom, remote, and in-house training support different learning needs
🟒 why interactive discussion and real-world examples matter
🟒 the value of learning from experienced food industry professionals

In our latest blog post, we look at how different learning approaches can help build confidence, strengthen food safety culture, and support teams across food manufacturing.
