MasterCard announced new SDP Program changes to drive consistency and quality of Merchant QSA Training in the December 15, 2009 Global Security Bulletin. Tha main change is the fact that from 30 June 2011, Level 1 merchants that choose to conduct an annual onsite assessment using an internal auditor must ensure that primary internal auditor staff engaged in validating PCI DSS compliance attend PCI SSC-offered merchant training programs and pass any PCI SSC associated accreditation program annually in order to continue to use internal auditors.
