ISO 29990:2010 specifies basic requirements for providers of learning services in non-formal education and training.

The objective of ISO 29990:2010 is to provide a generic model for quality professional practice and performance, and a common reference for learning service providers (LSPs) and their clients in the design, development and delivery of non-formal education, training and development. ISO 29990:2010 uses the term “learning services” rather than “training” in order to encourage a focus on the learner and the results of the process, and to emphasize the full range of options available for delivering learning services.

This new standard offering will give educational and training providers new possibilities and opportunities.
