ISO 21001 certification in Angola

ISO 21001 is the international management system standard for educational organisations, from schools and universities to vocational training centres.

What ISO 21001 is

The standard centres the management system on learners and other beneficiaries: programme design, admission and follow-up, trainer competence, learning assessment, accessibility, and improvement based on results.

How we prepare the certification

  3. 03Process and risk mapProcess design, assignment of owners and assessment of the associated risks and opportunities.
  4. 04DocumentationPolicy, procedures, instructions and records written for the actual operation, not generic templates.
  5. 05Training and roll-outTeam training and day-to-day roll-out of the system, with evidence of real use.
  6. 06Internal auditInternal audit run by network auditors, recording non-conformities and corrective actions.

Preparing and certifying are separate functions
