Standards GO Home About BSI UK National Standards Body How to get involved with standards Get involved in standards that make people’s lives better and help organizations thrive. Standards affect all of us every day – wherever we go, whatever we do. By defining good practice, they help people, business and the economy. What kinds of people get involved? We welcome all applications; you only need to have relevant knowledge and experience, or to represent relevant group of stakeholders. The goal is to have a balance of views around the table. So our standards-makers might be: Individual experts of all ages and backgrounds Seasoned professionals or industry innovators Nominated representatives of government, professional bodies and academia Representatives of charities and public interest groups Different ways to get involved Visit our standards development portal to: Suggest an idea for a new standard View and comment on proposals for new standards View and comment on draft standards (Drafts for Public Comment - DPCs) Browse a list of committees by sector or industry, or search by keyword OR Become a standards-maker Become a Committee Chair Join the consumer network and represent the voice of the consumer The CPIN is made up of trained volunteers who are experts in consumer issues. They make sure that the consumer voice is heard as standards are being developed. Interested? Please see our useful resources page to read more about the support you will receive from BSI.
