Working with IAS
Working with IAS
Certification work has rules, and our working practices follow from them. This is what that means day to day.
- Impartiality comes first
- Before an assignment you declare any link with the client. If there is a conflict you are not assigned, and nobody is asked to change a finding to suit a client.
- Evidence, not opinion
- Findings, reports and decisions rest on objective evidence and documented rules for each scheme, so your work can stand up to an accreditation body’s review.
- Technical learning
- You work across international standards and sectors, and with colleagues who audit, train and coordinate across the group’s regions.
- Shared responsibility
- Coordinators, auditors, reviewers and trainers each own a part of the client’s result. Handovers are written down so nothing depends on memory.
- Client service
- Clients get plain answers, agreed dates and written follow-up. That depends on everyone keeping records current.
- Confidentiality and conduct
- Client information stays confidential. Everyone works to a code of conduct and treats colleagues and clients with respect.
Development
Developing professional expertise
These are the usual ways expertise grows in a certification body. They are opportunities that depend on competence and business need, not contractual entitlements or promises of promotion or funded qualifications.
