Automotive SPICE Trustworthy Observation
Your final practical exam for intacs certified Competent Assessor Automotive SPICE
Why this training?
An experienced Automotive SPICE Provisional Assessor observes that he is able to conduct an Automotive SPICE Assessment. With this practical examination, he completes his training as an Automotive SPICE Competent Assessor. A particularly experienced lead assessor is the auditor, i.e. he observes the activities and evaluates them on the basis of defined criteria.
We carry out the observations in accordance with intacs guidelines, methodology and evaluation criteria. In order to achieve a more detailed evaluation and a higher value of the observation, we also use more detailed evaluation criteria and have the observation monitored by an independent expert. After passing the examination, the candidate receives two reports — one for intacs and one from the external auditor.
