ISO 19011:2018 7.6: Maintaining and improving auditor competence

Guidance: auditors and audit team leaders should keep improving their competence and keep it current by taking part in management system audits regularly and by ongoing professional development such as work experience, training, private study, coaching, meetings, seminars and conferences. Those managing the programme should establish mechanisms for the continual evaluation of auditor and team leader performance. Development activities should take into account how the needs of the person and of the auditing organization change, developments in auditing practice including technology, relevant standards, guidance and requirements, and changes in the sector or disciplines.
