Before you begin

Complete Audit orientation in this course; no previous module experience is required.

Your learning journey

1. Plan a scoped audit and checklist — Define what will be checked and which evidence will answer the questions.
2. Record objective checks and findings — Separate evidence, criteria and conclusions.
3. Review findings, actions and audit closure — Use the required closure gates and preserve effectiveness follow-up.

Practice and assessment

Use a notebook or authorised fictional workspace. The separate final test contains ten single-choice questions worth one point each. Seven correct answers achieve the 70% pass mark. Complete the required lessons and assessment to earn the Sentinel course certificate. The worked exercises are self-check activities; the knowledge test does not certify practical workplace competence.

Access and scope

Enrolment is allocated by the Academy administrator. A software subscription is not needed to complete notebook exercises. Editing Sentinel requires the appropriate account, permissions, licence and workplace authority.
