”
 It was pleasure to have AQTS Inc. for ISO 9001:2008 lead auditor training for
managers/supervisors and six sigma black belts from different sites of GE Energy
facilities. The course was very well structured and nicely conducted. The tutor Safi Qudsi
made even the difficult and dry sessions look simple and easy to understand. ……... The
students stayed quite engrossed and interested in the course for all five days.
Definitely it was a value added course and GE would like to have AQTS back again for
this and other courses.“
Gerald Laslo … GE Energy Lead Trainer & Auditor

16. Testimonial
“ISO9001:2008 Lead Auditor Course …. Safi Qudsi …ensured ……..that the auditing concepts
and processes are thoroughly understood by all. The class exercises were very well
designed and the role play exercises were as close to as it could get to real time scenarios.
………..The course is very informative ……... This course has given me an important
qualification opening up new vistas for me.”

17. Testimonial
”
the instructor (Safi Qudsi) provided thorough review of the 9000:2008 ISO standard as well
as the role of internal auditing ……….. There was excellent use of case study materials and
actual in-class exercises where participants prepared for, conducted and reported on actual
audits. The course provides ……….. most insight into company and improvement
opportunities .
I strongly recommend this course for any company that is seeking …..to improve
current internal audit process. ………….The course provides participants with solid
understanding ………to drive organizational improvement.

18. Testimonial
”
I gained an incredible amount of valuable knowledge that I can apply to various roles/
aspects of the Quality department at West and when evaluating customers or suppliers
externally.
The ISO 9001:2008 Lead Auditor course that was given by Safi Qudsi at Abacus Quality
Training Services Inc. far exceeded my expectations. One of the most effective instruction
techniques that Safi Qudsi utilized was use of case files coupled with individual and group
exercises after each course section. …… Another interesting technique that Safi instituted
throughout the course was the use of improvisational roll-playing as auditors and
auditees. ……..
By the end of the week, I not only learned an incredible volume of information
regarding ISO 9001:2008 but also the means by which to effective apply it to a
variety of industries.

Ravi Patel: QA Validation Engineer - West Pharmaceutical Services

19. Testimonial
”
The course was one of the more interactive and comprehensive training courses I
have taken in the past few years. The instructor was very knowledgeable, patient and
encouraged participation from all the class members.
The exercises used were practical and evolved around the classes own experiences. I still am
glancing back at my reference material as I am able to incorporate what I learned into practical
use here at our organization.
I would easily recommend the class to those interested in either learning more about
the auditing process, ISO 9001:2008 or wanting to attain lead auditor status.
