(NOTE: This change does not affect the 9100:2016 series Delta Training programs for already-authenticated auditors.) Please note the following suspension schedule:

June 15, 2017 marks a very important date for the Aviation, Space and Defense certification scheme. In accordance with Supplemental Rule SR-003, all new 9100, 9110 and 9120 audits are to be conducted to the new standards.
The IAQG OPMT wanted to provide an update on the status of auditor transition and the actions taken to assist the auditor population in successfully completing the transition.
In addition to the communications and activities conducted by the certification bodies, the IAQG OPMT has initiated various communications in an attempt to ensure successful completion of the transition activities.
Two recent communications that auditors may find helpful include the following materials:
Auditors are also encouraged to review the deployment support materials that have been developed by the IAQG Requirements Team and available at: https://www.sae.org/iaqg/organization/requirements.htm#oversight.
In addition, as a result of a request from the Independent International Organisation for Certification (IIOC), the OPMT has eliminated the maximum number of retakes and reduced the wait period between retakes to 24 hours. These changes were implemented on May 18, 2017.
These changes apply to all 9100:2016 series auditor training assessments, including the:
The goal of the IAQG OPMT is to provide an effective and convenient approach for currently authenticated auditors to complete the required training while also ensuring effective audits and audit reporting. We continue to monitor the results and take actions to ensure that our goals and the goals of the various interested parties are achieved as effectively and efficiently as possible.
Effective 18 May 2017, the IAQG OMPT has rescinded the limit on retake attempts, and changed the mandatory wait period to 24 hours after each attempt.
These changes apply to all 9100:2016 series auditor training assessments, including the:
If you are currently in the retake process, please note that your wait period has been adjusted to align with the new wait period of 24 hours after your previous attempt.
If you have any questions or require further assistance, please contact us by email at customersupport@iaqgtraining.com, or by phone at +1 (888) 788-4342 or +1 (226) 777-0160. Our Customer Support Team is available by phone from 8:30am to 5:00pm US Central Time (GMT-6).
The following communication is intended to provide an update on:
CURRENT TRAINING STATUS:
With the launch of the 9110:2016 training modules in French, German, Italian and Spanish on March 22, 2017; all training, in all agreed languages are now available.
The following summarizes the completion status for 9100:2016; 9110:2016 and 9120:2016 as of March 19, 2017.
| Program | Total Purchases | Successful Completions (Certificates Issued) |
| 9100:2016 | 1068 | 596 |
| 9110:2016 | 75 | 25 |
| 9120:2016 | 180 | 61 |
The OPMT continues to monitor the above ratio of Total Purchases to Successful Completions in order to gage training progress, effectiveness and auditor resources. Auditors are encouraged to be diligent in their efforts to complete this training as soon as possible.
It is recommended that auditors that have successfully completed the AATT course and are interested in taking the training modules reference the IAQG OASIS email that was sent out on January 13, 2017 for early lessons learned and key take-a-ways that may assist in preparing for these courses. Auditors may access the IAQG Training site at https://www.iaqgtraining.com/store/offers-delta for information on purchasing these courses.
UPGRADING AUDITOR AUTHENTICATION:
Once the auditor has successfully completed the 9100:2016, 9110:2016 or the 9120:2016 module(s) it is critical that he/she provides evidence of successful completion of the required sanctioned transition training to the Auditor Authentication Body (AAB) responsible for their existing authentication, in accordance with SR-003 paragraph 6b. This will allow the AAB to upgrade the auditor’s status in OASIS and qualify the Auditor to complete audits to the updated standard(s).
NOTE: If you already passed the program and sent this evidence to your AAB, no further action is required.
CRITICAL DATE APPROACHING – JUNE 15, 2017:
In accordance with SR-003, no initial, surveillance or recertification audits shall be started to the previous versions of the AQMS standards after June 15, 2017. Auditors that have not been authenticated to the new standard by the June 15 date will no longer be qualified to conduct initial, surveillance or recertification audits to the 9100, 9110 or 9120 standards. It is critical to the auditors and the aviation, space and defense supply chain that auditors do not delay in achieving authentication to the new series of standards.
OPMT Actions:
OPMT continues to monitor completion ratio of the training.
There are no plans for any changes to the curriculum or testing process at this time. The OPMT remains committed to ensure a robust and effective training program is maintained that will improve the competency level of the authenticated auditors in the ICOP scheme. IAQG-OPMT members recognize the efforts and greatly appreciate everybody’s support of this process.
This email was sent to all OPMT OP Assessors registered in OASIS on 13 January 2017. It is reproduced here for reference.
Dear Auditor,
9100:2016 Bridge Training Update:
The goal of the OPMT is to provide an effective and convenient approach for currently authenticated auditors to complete the required training while also ensuring effective audit reporting. We continue to monitor the results and take actions to ensure that our goals and the goals of the various interested parties are achieved as effectively and efficiently as possible.
Since launch of the 9100:2016 Bridge training the OPMT team wanted to share the current status and provide observations regarding the results to date.
As you are aware, the course consists of:
As of January 6, 2017, approximately 360 people have completed the ISO 9001 Pre-assessment and approximately 180 have completed the Forms and Audit Reporting Assessment. The training developer and the OPMT continue to analyze the results, the following includes early observations and key take-a-ways:
ISO 9001 Pre-assessment
9100:2016 Forms and Audit Reporting
OPMT Actions:
Based on continued analysis of auditor assessment performance in the IAQG-sanctioned 9100:2016 Online Update Component, and in an effort to support the transition process, IAQG OPMT is making the following adjustments to the program effective immediately:
ISO 9001:2015 Pre-Assessment:
9100:2016 Forms and Audit Reporting Assessment:
The training developer has agreed to make this change retroactive and will be communicating these changes as well as the remediation plan for addressing those impacted by these changes in the next days.
The goal of the OPMT is to provide an effective and convenient approach for currently authenticated auditors to complete the required training while also ensuring effective audit reporting. We continue to monitor the results and take actions to ensure that our goals and the goals of the various interested parties are achieved as effectively and efficiently as possible.
