•
• “Certification audit” has been replaced by “Initial certification audit” across the document.
• 7.2.1 is now “The general requirements for initial certification will apply: a. “no sampling is allowed (all modules must be audited at each individual site by the external auditor). If a specific module is to be taught in different settings, witnessing of training is required only in one of the settings if the lesson plan and the training materials are common in the different settings. However, the audit will verify that the required physical equipment in the GWO standard/module is in place, and that risks which are specific for each of the settings have been assessed” b. “initial certification audits must always be physical visits, at least for the witnessing of training in the Stage 2 audit”. c. “if a GWO standard or module has already been certified for digital learning delivery at any other site, the audit will focus on the qualification of the instructors and that the required equipment is in place for the digital learning delivery” • 7.4.1 is now “On the application of a new site to join an already certified multi-site training provider, the site shall be audited by the certification body before being included in the certificate. If a module planned to be delivered is already included in the multi-site certificate, additional witnessing of training is not required, and the audit will focus on: a. qualification of instructors.
b.
equipment and physical resources; and
c. risk assessments for the delivery of the training standard or module.”
