How to participate

ISO/CS training courses (except e-learning course) are offered  in Geneva, Switzerland, at the ISO/CS premises, or can be organized on-site.

1) Regular sessions in Geneva – Free of charge

Sessions of some of the regular courses are organized free-of-charge for ISO member bodies or correspondent members. Applicants will be registered on a first-come first-served basis, while  endeavouring to ensure equal opportunity among the membership. Travel and accommodation costs are to be covered by each participant at his/her own expense. ISO does not undertake to seek funding on behalf of participants from donors.

Pre-registration for the regular session should come through the relevant ISO member. The pre-registration form for the regular sessions may be found here.

2) Customized courses (cost recovery basis)
    On-site sessions or in Geneva, upon request

Training sessions can be organized upon request at the premises of ISO members or in Geneva. Sessions will be organized subject to availability of suitable instructors on the proposed dates. The duration and content of these sessions can be customized according to the needs of the requestor.

All ISO/CS regular training courses are based upon modular content. This facilitates potential customization – including omission or expansion of topics – according to the specific requirements of the participants.

For customized sessions, pricing is determined on the basis of full cost recovery. ISO/CS will apply a fee-per-day per instructor.

Instructor(s) travel and accommodation expenses and per diem allowance will be charged according to the ISO/CS staff rules.

Design and implementation of customized services (e.g. development of ad hoc training modules and materials), if requested will be charged on a time and material basis.
