Validity of our time-limited certificates:
Our CQI certificates are generally valid for three years. In the automotive industry, especially according to IATF 16949, the standard for quality management systems, there is no fixed validity period for auditor certificates. However, general recommendations and best practices have been established: Auditor certificates are typically valid for three years, which is in line with industry standards.
In addition, it is recommended that auditors regularly participate in training and continuing education to keep their knowledge and auditing skills up to date. Re-qualification is particularly necessary in the event of changes to the standards. To this end, we regularly offer "refresher training" to ensure that auditors fulfil the latest requirements.
