231 - Audit Findings Explained: Nonconformity vs Observation (CQA)

231 - Audit Findings Explained: Nonconformity vs Observation (CQA)

This is a lesson out of my ASQ CQA course with Andy Robertson, on how to write and classify audit findings.


Access the full CQA course here: https://cqeacademy.teachable.com/p/the-cqa-master-class-course


I break down key terms like finding, nonconformity, observation, and noncompliance, and explains that everything must tie back to requirements and objective evidence. The episode covers when to write a nonconformity vs an observation, common severity levels (critical, major, minor), and how to structure clear findings. I also cover how to sequence audit results and where auditors often go wrong, especially when they insert opinion or recommend solutions.
