Welcome to the Standards Learning Platform
The purpose of this tool is to educate you on standards - what they are, what they do, and how to apply them in real-world contexts.
A standard may have several courses to cover its content, allowing you to learn at your own pace.
You can explore the structure of any standard and see the associated learning objectives (along with the courses that cover them).
Example: Structure of the ISO 29119 Standard
