IAQG requires two trainers for the AATT course with one trainer meeting the work experience requirements for an aerospace experienced auditor and both trainers meeting the requirements of the Plexus/IAQG ASD Evaluator course. An approved training provider must order all instructor-led materials from Plexus International.
