ISO 9001 will officially update September 16, 2026 —and certified organizations need to understand what has changed and how to prepare for the transition from ISO 9001:2015 to ISO 9001:2026.
 

Join West Virginia University Industrial Extension and Core Business Solutions, our ISO 9001 Subject Matter Expert Consulting Partner, for a practical webinar designed to help West Virginia manufacturers understand the new ISO 9001:2026 requirements without getting lost in standards language.
 

During this session, Core Business Solutions’ ISO experts will break down the most important changes, including the increased emphasis on quality culture and ethical behavior, clearer separation of risks and opportunities, strengthened change management, organizational knowledge, and other updates that may affect your existing Quality Management System (QMS).
 

We’ll also discuss what has not changed, where organizations are likely to see the greatest impact, and practical steps ISO 9001:2015-certified companies can take to prepare for transition. The session will include practical examples for manufacturers.
 

Attendees will learn:

• The key changes from ISO 9001:2015 to ISO 9001:2026
• What the new requirements mean in practical terms for manufacturers
• How quality culture and ethical behavior now factor into the QMS
• What has changed around risk, opportunity, and change management
• Which existing QMS processes and documentation should be reviewed
• How to approach the transition without unnecessarily rebuilding your QMS
• Practical next steps to begin preparing for ISO 9001:2026

Whether your organization is currently ISO 9001 certified, preparing for certification, or simply evaluating how the new standard may affect your business, this webinar will give you a clear understanding of what ISO 9001:2026 means and where to focus next.
