Correctly applied, a site’s gluten-free management system (GFMS) will provide a very strong level of protection from failure, and if failure does occur, it will enable the rapid identification and management of risks and deviations. Increasing the availability of gluten-free products that conform to regulatory requirements will enable market expansion and should, at the same time, reduce the burden on government enforcement. Consumers will benefit by having increased confidence in their purchases, wider availability, and variety of choice.</p>\n                                 </div>\n                              </div>\n                           </div>\n                        </div>\n                     </div>\n                  </div>\n               </div>\n            </div>\n         </div>\n      </section>\n<!-- /wp:html -->\n\n<!-- wp:html -->\n<section class=\"latestBlogHome postionRelative\">\n	  	  <div class=\"latestBlogHomeBgImage\"></div>\n         <div class=\"container\">\n            <div class=\"row\">\n               <div class=\"col-md-12\">\n                  <h2>Related Services</h2>\n				  <p>Browse the other products or services that QCI Global Assurance can provide you and your organization.</p>\n               </div>\n            </div>\n            <div class=\"blogHomeList\">\n               <div class=\"row\">\n                 [qci-random-posts]\n               </div>\n            </div>\n         </div>\n      </section>\n<!-- /wp:html -->\n\n<!-- wp:html -->\n<section class=\"postionRelative\">\n         <div class=\"container\">\n            <div class=\"row\">\n               <div class=\"col-md-12\">\n                  <h2>Assurance Training</h2>\n                  <p>As a leading provider of education and training, QCI Global Assurance Learning offers a wide range of training courses to help you learn, plan, implement, assess and improve your management system.</p>\n               </div>\n            </div>\n			<div class=\"ColumnBlockSection pb-0\">\n               <div class=\"row\">\n                  <div class=\"col-md-6 flexCol\">\n                     <a href=\"#\" class=\"courseInfoBlock\">\n					 <h3 class=\"textBlue\">BRCGS – Internal Auditor Course</h3>\n                     <p>By attending the BRCGS Internal Auditor Course, attendees will obtain the knowledge and the skills necessary to effectively perform a BRCGS Internal Audit within their organization.</p>\n					 </a>\n                  </div>\n                  <div class=\"col-md-6 flexCol\">\n					<a href=\"#\" class=\"courseInfoBlock\">\n                     <h3 class=\"textBlue\">BRCGS For Food Safety Issue 8 – Auditor Training</h3>\n                     <p>This course has been designed to enable delegates to gain a full understanding of the general principles of the Standard, and how to comply with the requirements.</p>\n					 </a>\n                  </div>\n                  <div class=\"col-md-6 flexCol\">\n					<a href=\"#\" class=\"courseInfoBlock\">\n                     <h3 class=\"textBlue\">BRCGS For Food Safety Issue 8 – Lead Auditor</h3>\n                     <p>This 5-day in-depth course will provide an understanding of the Standard in terms of the protocol, requirements and how to audit effectively.

Correctly applied, a site’s gluten-free management system (GFMS) will provide a very strong level of protection from failure, and if failure does occur, it will enable the rapid identification and management of risks and deviations. Increasing the availability of gluten-free products that conform to regulatory requirements will enable market expansion and should, at the same time, reduce the burden on government enforcement. Consumers will benefit by having increased confidence in their purchases, wider availability, and variety of choice.</p>\n                                 </div>\n                              </div>\n                           </div>\n                        </div>\n                     </div>\n                  </div>\n               </div>\n            </div>\n         </div>\n      </section>\n<!-- /wp:html -->\n\n<!-- wp:html -->\n<section class=\"latestBlogHome postionRelative\">\n	  	  <div class=\"latestBlogHomeBgImage\"></div>\n         <div class=\"container\">\n            <div class=\"row\">\n               <div class=\"col-md-12\">\n                  <h2>Related Services</h2>\n				  <p>In addition to the services mentioned earlier, there are several related services that can further support improving business excellence maturity and sustainable business practices.
