As stated in the Requirements for Certification, Auditor Qualification Training (AQT) is required as a pre-requisite to complete any GWO audit.
This means that the qualifications of audit team members shall follow the general rules for accreditation regarding auditor qualifications and relevant sector codes:
- A fully qualified and active ISO 9001/45001 lead auditor under ISO/IEC 17021 and/or ISO/IEC 17065 must conduct the audit of the quality management system of a training provider
- A fully qualified and active ISO 45001 lead auditor or similar must cover the audit of a training session
- Auditors who wish to perform GWO audits must have successfully completed the GWO Auditor Qualification Training.
To maintain the GWO auditor qualification the auditor must complete the GWO Auditor Development Training (ADT) within a 12-month interval since completion of the GWO Auditor Qualification Training (AQT) and under the condition that the auditor remains active by performing at least 2 audits under the GWO scheme every year.
Hence, if the auditor does not conduct at least 2 audits within a 12-month interval, the auditor must complete the Auditor Qualification Training again.
Lastly, certificates provided to GWO from auditors that have not documented conformance and passed the Auditor Qualification Training will not be accepted.
