The OECI Accreditation & Designation (A&D) Programme will hold its next Auditors’ Training Course on 26–28 October 2026 at Villa Verganti Veronesi in Inveruno, Italy.

The course is designed to provide participants with the knowledge and practical skills required to take part in OECI A&D peer reviews and to contribute to the assessment of cancer centres participating in the OECI Accreditation Programme.

Across three days, participants will gain an understanding of the OECI A&D Programme and standards and work through the main stages of an audit, from information gathering and planning to interviews, evidence interpretation, reporting and the use of the OECI e-tool. The programme combines presentations, discussions and practical exercises, including a mock inspection exercise designed to simulate key aspects of an OECI peer review.

Key topics include:

  • Introduction to the OECI Accreditation & Designation Programme and standards
  • Quality systems and the definition of an audit
  • Planning and conducting the different phases of an audit
  • Interview techniques and asking effective questions
  • Facts, evidence and interpretation
  • Use of the OECI e-tool and website
  • Mock inspection and feedback
  • Reporting and practical exercises

The course provides an opportunity to develop a structured approach to peer review and prepare for future OECI A&D audits in an interactive, international learning environment. The programme is delivered by OECI faculty with experience in quality and accreditation and has been developed in cooperation with Kerteza.
