Who’s this course for?

This course is a good fit for you if you already have a basic understanding of standards and want to learn more about how they are organised and applied, by who, and under what circumstance. Key distinctions between types of standards, such as product, process, service, and management system standards, are introduced, along with a look into how standards can differ depending on who develops them and for what purpose.

The course will help you better understand how to navigate, choose, and use the right type of standard, and how different standard-related documents fit together. It is especially useful if you work with standards in a practical setting, or want a more structured overview of how the standardisation landscape is organised.
