6. Management Processes
6.1. Examination centers
Standard examinations at level 1, level 2 or level 3 or without any level are carried out at
relevant examination centers. All our processes are independent of any training in order to
ensure confidentiality, information security and impartiality. Examinations are carried out
by examiners who are in possession of the specific sector and level of certificates.
Examinations are carried out worldwide under the supervision and monitoring of SECTOR
Cert.
Approval as a training and examination center is granted by the Scheme Committee after
a successful initial audit. An authorization document is issued for training and examination
centers. Regular audits ensure that all requirements are still fulfilled to maintain the
authorization. Final release of an examination center is carried out by DAkkS.
6.2. Development of new services
SECTOR Cert has implemented procedures ensuring a systematic process for developing
new services e.g. new areas of certification, new testing techniques or methods, new
sector for qualification.
The decision to start the development process is made by the management e.g. by setting
up a working group. This group adopts the certification system to the new service.
6.3. Management of personnel
Strategic objectives are set based on the company’s philosophy. In annual staff appraisals
personal objectives are mutually agreed. Necessary qualifications are discussed and
trainings are arranged. Each member of staff is responsible to achieve the objectives and
the training schedules agreed on.
It is ensured by documented and signed agreements between SECTOR Cert and each
examiner that any conflict of interest is to be reported to the relevant superior immediately.
This is valid for all personnel, whose activities may endanger the impartiality,
confidentiality and/or information security, including contracted personnel carrying out
activities on behalf of SECTOR Cert.
As fixed in all contracts company or personal information and data are treated confidential.
6.4. Book keeping / controlling
Book keeping and controlling are done at the premises of the main shareholder.
6.5. Organization of technical committee and scheme committee meetings
Meetings of expert groups and trainings of examiners are arranged if necessary by the
head of examination in co-operation with management. The scheme committee meets
minimum once a year.
