GUIDELINES GOVERNING THE AEROSPACE AUDITOR TRANSITION TRAINING COURSE

The “IAQG-Sanctioned Aerospace Auditor Transition Training to AS9100:2009” is focused on the training and development of the auditor candidates. Advisement, correction, discussion, information transfer and learning are the focus of the training session. Additionally, trainer evaluations of the auditor candidates’ performance and understanding are directed toward improving the candidates’ performance and understanding. Trainers do not make final pass/fail determinations during the training, but they collect performance data that is used as an input to make pass/fail determinations with regard to candidates’ performance and understanding. Final evaluation of the candidates is the result of oral interviews, online examinations and continual evaluations during the training session.
