What are Open Door events?

The Open Door events are open days for standards developers-to-be. Are you interested in getting involved in standards development? Then come to one or more of our Open Door events. We organize them in function of a specific domain.

In 2023, there will be 6 priority committees and thus 6 Open Door events will take place:

  • 26/04: Quality Management
  • 08/05: Circular economy
  • 10/05: Biodiversity
  • 14/06: Environmental Management
  • 25/10: Energy Management
  • 29/11: Safety and health management - ONLINE SESSION

Why participate?

At the event, you can talk to experts who already sit on that particular committee, and to other Belgian people who share your interests. You will learn about standards in general and in the context of your expertise. You will learn what standards are and how they help you and your organisation . During lunch you can network with other experts in your field in a relaxed atmosphere.


What's on the program?

An Open Door event consists of an information session and a networking lunch. Up to 30 people interested in standards development in a priority domain meet face to face with members of the Belgian committee.
