Keeping up to date

CEN and CENELEC are working constantly to provide new standards which business and industry need, as well as ensuring existing standards continue to be 'fit for purpose'. Therefore, it is important for all organisations who use standards, including SMEs, to keep up to date about standards by getting information and news, including about new and revised standards, new standards projects and general news and updates. But how?

Discover the different ways of keeping up-to-date:

Through CEN and CENELEC members
