WIRE offers training for social auditors, both for basic auditing and for Continuous Professional Development (CPD). All training courses have been developed to address social auditing challenges such as subjectivity, time management, representative sampling, and methods of deception that auditors often encounter.
WIRE courses focus on specific auditor competencies and skills for both new and experienced auditors. Besides upskilling, WIRE training is built on rekindling auditor passion and belonging to the profession, working within scheme or customer specific requirements and criteria to make a difference to workers’ rights and their lives.
WIRE’s training programmes teach participants how to sequence thinking, to use their experience and professional knowledge and form habits to observe, analyse and question.
WIRE trainers are selected based on the following criteria:
They are chosen for their values and ideologies, a part of everyday practice that encourages social reform for a better society. Trainers are adept in adult learning theories that cultivate ways of thinking using a developmental approach.
