Summary of Issue

Operational Policy 4 Inspector Training and Certification STANDARDS FOR AUDITOR/INSPECTOR/INVESTIGATOR DECERTIFICATION/ DISQUALIFICATION/WAIVERS Failing any exam or failing to successfully demonstrate proficiency in the specific course material requires the auditor/inspector/inspector to successfully retest or repeat the course that was failed. A successful retest of any certification exam is achievement of at least the minimum passing grade established in this Operational Policy.

Justification or Need

Clarification on certified inspector who attends a CVSA course(Part A, Part B, ETC.) If the inspector fails the course and is already certified, should this decertify the inspector? i.e. Inspector has been certifed for 6 years and fails another CVSA exam is the inspector decertifed or is he allowed to go back to work and still inspect?

Request for Action

Clarification on if the inspector goes back through on a refresher course does thier pass or fail affect their certifcation?
