Update of the Revision of ISO/IEC 17024

June 6 @ 2:00 pm 3:00 pm EDT

ISO CASCO Working Group 30 has been formed and has held several meetings to discuss revisions to ISO/IEC 17024:2012. In the course of these discussions several key issues have been identified and the users and interested parties in ISO/IEC 17024 will be well served with information and background about them.

In the current ISO standards development process, the primary stage to express comments about revision to ISO/IEC 17024 will be during the Committee Draft stage. Working Group 30 is nearing the end of its initial discussions and the distribution of the Committee Draft ballot as the first draft of the revision to ISO/IEC 17024 is its current objective.

In this very timely and informative webinar, the ANAB expert to ISO CASCO WG (Working Group) 30 will identify and discuss the key issues now being considered and finalized for the Committee Draft ballot of the revision of ISO/IEC 17024.  This background information will help all those with an interest in this standard understand the significance of the proposed revised text in the Committee Draft and identify areas for especially careful review.  This background will also help place the final revisions (whatever those may be) in to context and will facilitate any actions needed to transition fulfillment to the new version of the standard when published.
