What is the difference between a minor and major nonconformity?

A minor nonconformity is a single or non-critical failure of the ISMS, whereas a major nonconformity is a more systematic or critical failure of a process or key elements of the management system.  If your organisation is attempting to gain third-party certification, a major nonconformity may prevent this certification from being granted.  However, once your organisation has achieved certification a finding of this nature may result in the suspension of your certification in certain circumstances.

I thought the training was very good. It was clear and logical. The trainer was very knowledgeable, approachable and friendly, which makes it easy to stop and ask questions or to clarify a point. I was particularly impressed by his explanation of why we need to be mindful of the language we use and what the standard is actually asking for; most of it is common sense, but understanding what it actually means and what is required is key, so that really resonated with me.
