About the ISO 50001 Auditor Checklist:

Applicants applying for, or expanding to, the ISO 50001 Auditor level must complete the following checklist as documentation of the
application of their confirmed knowledge competencies during their Energy Management System Audits. All audits must be
conducted under the observation of an RABQSA certified ISO 50001 Lead Auditor. This checklist is aligned with the Test
Specifications of the ISO 50001 Auditor National Exam (see Annex C of PCD67 QB ISO 50001 Auditor Certification Requirements).

1. Have this checklist available during each of your Energy Management System audits where you are part of the audit team.
2. Write the date of your first Energy Management System audit at the top of the first column and write the name and contact
information for that audits ISO 50001 Lead Auditor.
3. Provide this checklist to the ISO 50001 Lead Auditor to complete.
4. The ISO 50001 Lead Auditor places a checkmark for each knowledge competency applied by you during that audit.
5. The ISO 50001 Lead Auditor signs the end of that column stating s/he observed your knowledge competencies.
6. Continue to use this checklist for each subsequent Energy Management System Audit until all knowledge competencies in the
checklist have been applied.
NOTE: While there are 5 columns in this checklist, you may submit your checklist at any time all knowledge competencies have been
applied (e.g., if you apply all competencies in 3 audits, you may submit this checklist with your application or expansion application.).
Should you require more than 5 audits to apply the knowledge competencies shown, continue your documentation on another
checklist.
