Requirements for Certification / V12 2023-05-02

6.3.3 Stage 1 is a readiness review of the four processes described (below) taken from the Requirements for Training (Sections 6, 7, 8, 9). This is performed by the auditor to determine the preparedness of the training provider for stage 2, and must cover as part of the quality management system:

a. supporting processes (e.g., does QMS support described quality of documentation?) (Section 6)

b. equipment and physical resources (e.g., does equipment and facilities at least match the described in the GWO standard or module and is it maintained to be safe?) (Section 7) c. instructor qualifications (e.g., is the instructor qualifications programme sufficient to ensure all instructors are sufficiently qualified?) (Section 8) d. training and assessment (e.g., do lesson plans and management instructions match the GWO standard or module to be certified against?) (Section 9)

6.3.4 Through dialogue with the training provider, Stage 1 must:

a. identify areas of concern, potentially leading to non-conformity

b.

review the allocation of resources for Stage 2

6.3.5 Stage 1 can be repeated until it produces satisfactory results to proceed with Stage 2
