Industry
Consulting & Professional Services
Challenge
As a fast-growing Queensland-based consultancy, Oversight Consulting needed to build auditing capability across their team without pulling consultants away from client delivery. Supporting ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001, they also wanted training that reinforced management system fundamentals and “the why” behind compliance.
Solution
Oversight Consulting partnered with ATOL to deliver flexible training that strengthens auditing capability across their team. With corporate partnership access, Oversight has expanded training over time, supporting consistent delivery and helping lift audit readiness across their wider client base.
ATOL Training
Self-paced Auditor Training: ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001 + ISO 19011
“ATOL’s online training gave our consultants the flexibility to complete it around client work, and the corporate partnership pricing has been a huge win for us. With several of our team already trained and more currently studying, ATOL has become our preferred supplier and has helped us build the audit capability we need to support multiple ISO standards across our client base.”

About Oversight Consulting
Oversight Consulting is a South East Queensland–based health and safety consultancy specialising in the construction industry. Led by Founder Ethan Fricke, the team supports business owners and site leaders with practical systems, compliance support, training, and auditing. With experience supporting some of Australia’s largest builders and contractors nationally and internationally, Oversight is recognised as one of the region’s fastest-growing consulting groups, helping organisations reduce risk and build long-term capability.
The Challenge
As a fast-growing South East Queensland consulting firm, Oversight Consulting regularly works with organisations facing common operational and compliance pressures, particularly around accountability, WHS legal requirements, and the growing pains that come with scaling without a clear framework.
With increasing demand from clients, Oversight needed to strengthen auditing capability and confidence across their consulting team, without slowing down delivery work or pulling people away from client commitments.
Because their work spans key standards including ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and ISO 45001, Oversight required training that didn’t just cover audit checklists, but helped their consultants properly understand management system fundamentals and the “why” behind requirements. That deeper understanding was important for confidently applying audit principles across different industries and client contexts, especially as their consultants supported more complex compliance expectations.
At the same time, Oversight needed training that was flexible enough to complete online around workloads, while still offering strong value as the team continued to grow.
The Solution
Oversight Consulting partnered with ATOL to provide a training solution that matched the realities of a busy consulting team, delivering the flexibility of online learning alongside strong value through corporate partnership pricing. This allowed Oversight’s consultants to complete training around client commitments while still building consistent capability across the business.
Through the partnership, Oversight has been able to upskill consultants in auditing fundamentals and management system principles. The training strengthened not only audit confidence, but also deeper understanding of “why” management systems work, which in turn helped consultants apply requirements more effectively across varied client environments.
With multiple team members already completing the course, Oversight has continued expanding capability across their team to support ongoing growth. The partnership has also delivered value beyond Oversight’s consultants, supporting stronger audit readiness and management system understanding across their client base.
“The corporate partnership has been really successful for us, and we’ve now seen some of our clients go through the course as well. ATOL has become a trusted training partner for our network.”
The Results
Through ATOL’s training, Oversight Consulting experienced:
-
Stronger auditor capability across the team, supporting more confident and consistent client outcomes
-
Deeper understanding of management system fundamentals, helping the team apply the “why” behind requirements, not just the checklist
-
A flexible online training option, allowing consultants to upskill without disrupting client delivery
-
Ongoing value through a successful corporate partnership

Together, these outcomes have supported Oversight’s continued growth while maintaining consistent, high-quality support for clients.
