IQS Competence evaluation with Accredited Personnel Certification

Certification Process Overview

At International Quality Services (IQS), we are committed to providing a transparent, fair, and efficient certification process. Our process is designed to assess the qualifications and competencies of individuals seeking certification in their respective fields.

Certification Process (Clause 7.2.2)

Our certification process follows these key steps to ensure fairness and transparency:

  1. Application Submission:
    Candidates are required to submit a completed application form along with the necessary supporting documents, such as qualifications, professional experience, and relevant certifications.
  2. Eligibility Review:
    Each application is carefully reviewed to ensure the candidate meets the eligibility criteria for certification, as defined by the relevant standard.
  3. Assessment:
    The candidate is then evaluated through a structured assessment process, which may include written examinations, practical assessments, and interviews. The assessment is designed to evaluate the individual’s competence in relation to the specific certification standards.
  4. Certification Decision:
    Based on the assessment results, a decision is made regarding the candidate’s certification status. If the candidate meets all the required criteria, they will be issued a certification.
  5. Certification Renewal:
    To ensure ongoing competence, certified individuals are required to undergo periodic reviews and re-assessments as part of the renewal process. The renewal is contingent upon the individual’s adherence to ongoing professional development and the maintenance of their competencies.
  6. Appeals and Complaints:
    If a candidate disagrees with a certification decision, they have the right to appeal the decision. IQS provides an accessible, clear appeals process to ensure that any disputes are addressed fairly and in a timely manner.
