RSM prepares ISO Repository of teaching materials about standardisation

The International Organization for Standardization ISO has launched a repository of materials for academic teaching on standardisation. This repository has been prepared by a team led by Henk de Vries, Associate Professor of Standardisation at Rotterdam School of Management, Erasmus University (RSM) and gives access to bibliographic information on existing teaching materials. Teachers and standards professionals can use this tool for designing and delivering courses on standards matters and improving existing courses. A classification system makes it possible to search for the right materials. The repository is available on the ISO website .

Henk de Vries and his colleagues Basak Manders and Joey Veurink also prepared a second repository consisting of scientific and professional papers and reports on standardisation in education systems.  This repository includes a collection of documents from various sources (such as policy documents from National Standards Bodies or national agencies, studies from academic institutions or researchers), describing how standardisation is integrated into education in various countries and what has been done or is being done to achieve this. This repository can be found here.
