ISO 29993:2017 Certification | Learning Services Outside Formal Education

ISO 29993:2017 is the international standard that specifies requirements for non-formal learning services, including vocational education, corporate training, and life-long learning initiatives. It is designed for learning service providers (LSPs) offering training directly to learners or through sponsors, such as companies or institutions acquiring services on learners’ behalf.

This standard covers in-person, blended, or tech-mediated learning experiences and ensures that services are well-structured, goal-driven, and interactive. ISO 29993 focuses on measurable outcomes, learner engagement, and service evaluation, offering a quality benchmark for learning activities outside traditional schools, colleges, or universities.

With today’s knowledge economy requiring constant upskilling and personalized training, ISO 29993 brings global credibility, standardization, and trust to providers offering professional and lifelong learning.
