Webinars
Information Technology Standard ISO 27001:2022 Introduction
Please join EAGLE Certification Group and Radian Compliance LLC for a 1-hour, FREE webinar to learn more about the new ISO 27001:2022 standard.
ISO 27001 certification provides a robust framework for establishing, implementing, maintaining and continually improving your organization’s Information Security Management System (ISMS). This certification helps:
- Mitigate cyber risks and data breaches
- Comply with regulatory requirements
- Build trust with stakeholders and customers
- Strengthen your organization’s overall security posture
The Art of Managing Processes within Management Systems
Improvement of a process and maintaining a process framework is often a responsibility given to Business Process Analysts, Process Engineers, and Business Excellence Managers. Often this is separate from Systems Managers who are responsible for the Quality Management System of an organization. In this APQC webinar, Colin Christmas, Managing Director at EAGLE Certification Group, discusses why it is important to integrate process management into a management system to achieve sustained success.
SQF Fundamentals Verification Assessment (FVA)
This digital seminar co-hosted with SQFI and EAGLE, will help you learn more about SQF Fundamentals Verification Assessment (FVA), which is a half-day remote assessment designed to provide very small businesses with a cost-effective alternative to traditional onsite GMP or certification audits. It allows them to showcase their readiness to supply safe food products and ingredients. SQF FVA also offers a significantly lower cost of adoption making it an attractive option for budget-conscious businesses.
The Value of a Strong Internal Audit Program
This online digital webinar features previous Chief Technical Officer for EAGLE Food, Roger Roeth, who presents on the value of performing a successful internal audit to the SQF Fundamentals Program.
Introduction to PAS 320: Developing and Sustaining a Mature Food Safety Culture
Organizations in the food & beverage sector are aware of the need for a positive food safety culture – from leadership and front-line teams to external stakeholders, like upstream and downstream supply chain partners.
But how do they develop and support an excellent food safety culture? PAS 320 is newly published and designed as a practical guide to complement any food organization’s existing Food Safety Management System (FSMS). With the objective to help define what a good food safety culture looks like along with its critical components.
This EAGLE-sponsored webinar included a panel discussion where attendees will learn different perspectives from some of the leading experts who collaborated to create this specification. Hosted by Deb Coviello, with panelists Dan Fone, Walmart, Bizhan Pourkomailian, McDonald’s, Quincy Lissaur, SSAFE, and Brad Shillito, EAGLE Certification Group.
How Small Meat Processors Can Improve Their Food Safety System

Richa Bedi-Navik, from BRCGS, explained why they are well positioned to help smaller meat processors and Nancy Berger-Turner, from EAGLE Certification Group, shared the benefits of certification and why partnering with a certification body (CB) that fits well with their organization is an important decision in the process.
