Answer:

OHSAS 18001 doesn't define the qualification of internal auditor and it doesn't require internal auditors to attend internal auditor training, not even from the CB. The only requirement regarding the internal auditor is to ensure objectivity and impartiality of the audit process (clause 4.5.5).
