Auditor knowledge and experience requirements

Auditor knowledge and experience requirements
Auditors must have some basic knowledge required to conduct audits. These basic knowledge mainly include: Knowledge of relevant standards Auditors must know and understand all the requirements of the audit standards. There is no need to try to memorize them all. Audit management knowledge and skills should be mastered, such as audit planning, audit organization, audit control, etc. However, they must be able to explain what good management principles and good control are during the audit. Auditors must have a sufficient grasp of the standards to support the non-conformity reports issued with the provisions therein. General industry knowledge Auditors do not have to be technical experts in products or services. However, they must know the basic management processes in similar industries. For example, an auditor who has worked in mechanical processing will have a better understanding of similar industrial situations, but it is not appropriate for him to audit food processing, pharmaceuticals or construction industries. Knowledge of special industries In some high-tech industries, the management processes required to control products have become special and unique management methods for that special industry. For example, manufacturers of computer programming or advanced electronic components. In such cases, auditors should understand the relevant industrial management processes, that is, they should have the necessary professional and technical knowledge to perform effective audits. Experience in conducting audits The best way to learn how to audit is to participate in some audits with an experienced auditor. Master the assessment techniques such as inspection, questioning, evaluation and reporting. But every time you participate in an audit, you will learn some knowledge, such as management attitude, management process, how to conduct investigations and where to investigate, etc. The most important thing is to further understand the requirements of the standard.
