Really nice course. Straight to the point, no blah blah. Gave me exactly what I needed for my work. Cheers!

Super useful course! The instructors actually know what happens on real inspection sites, not just theory. I’ve already applied a few things at work.

A good course, but it could benefit from more field-based exercises. Coming from a hands-on inspection background, I prefer training that feels more practical. Still, the documentation and reporting section was truly helpful

It was my first training in this area, and honestly, I didn’t expect it to be so engaging. The real-world examples helped me understand how vendor inspections actually work, beyond the theory. A good blend of technical and operational content!

I genuinely enjoyed the Vendor Inspection Training course. It was clear, practical, and well-structured. The real-world examples helped me connect theory to actual inspection scenarios, which made a huge difference. Highly recommended for anyone working in procurement or QA!
