ISO 21001
Offer the highest quality teaching and training.What is ISO 21001?
The ISO 21001 quality management system standardises education management to ensure it meets learners’ needs. It assists educational organisations to implement best practices and is based on the widely accepted ISO 9001 quality management systems.
Around the world, education quality varies significantly. As an Educational Organisation Management System (EOMS), ISO 21001 emphasises several education management best practice concepts of:
- Education quality depends on trained facilitators/teachers
- A learner-centric approach is valued
- Good resources and facilities are provided
- Curriculum and material are relevant to learners
- Family and societal support is offered
- Gender-sensitive design is incorporated
- A safe and conducive learning environment
The standard also recognises that technology is revolutionising every facet of the education system. This includes streamlining homework assignments and marking, as well as giving special needs students more personalised support.
TÜV SÜD’s ISO 21001 certification service assesses an organisation’s education management against the standard. This helps improve quality by incorporating the standard’s concepts and objectives into teaching and training methods.
