Overview

Certifying persons is a different discipline from certifying management systems: the body must be impartial, and the examination itself must survive challenge from an unsuccessful candidate. ISO/IEC 17024 accreditation is decided largely on those two points. The Quality Manual sits above an Impartiality Policy and a Confidentiality and Security Policy, and the Certification Scheme is a reusable template for a single occupational category, stating scope of certification, prerequisites, examination structure, certification period and surveillance method, so each new credential is generated from the same architecture.

The procedures follow the candidate lifecycle: application and registration, assessment and examination, examination security and fraud prevention, the decision on certification and certificate issue, recertification, suspension, withdrawal and reduction of scope, use of certificates, logos and marks, and separated routes for appeals and for complaints. Impartiality is handled as a standing process with threat assessment guidance behind it, the set extends to the use of artificial intelligence in certification, and records are indexed and retained in line with sections 7.1 and 10.2.4 of the standard.

What this system covers

  • Scheme design — scope of certification, prerequisites, examination structure, certification period and surveillance method
  • Impartiality and conflict of interest — threat assessment, personnel declarations and the policies behind them
  • Application and eligibility — registration review, candidate agreements and special needs accommodation requests
  • Examination security and administration — item security, invigilation, site readiness and fraud prevention
  • Certification decision and certificate control — decision records, issue, and the rules on logos and marks
  • Surveillance, recertification, suspension and withdrawal — maintaining certified status and removing it when it is no longer earned
  • Appeals, complaints and examiner competence — independent handling routes, with examiner approval, monitoring and training

Who it's for

Personnel certification bodies preparing for ISO/IEC 17024 accreditation or holding it through surveillance, professional associations launching a credential of their own, and consultants building schemes for regulated or professional occupations. The trigger is usually an accreditation application or an assessment date in the diary. The outcome is a body that can show an assessor how a given examination was built, secured, marked and decided.
