The following information is taken word-for-word out of the training manual provided to each of our auditors. It was intended to provide a step-by-step approach for the auditor to follow, down to the last detail. In addition to circulating this material, each auditor also participated in a training session with CalAware staff to make sure that they understood their roles and responsibilities in this project. Auditors were assigned supervisors and were closely monitored throughout the project to assure their adherence to our methodology.
