This course will be taught by staff from ANSI's procedures and standards administration program.

On Tuesday, November 10, a course will detail the activities of U.S. Technical Advisory Groups (TAGs) and the responsibilities of TAG members, administrators and leaders. Students enrolled in course #208, The Operating Procedures of U.S. TAGs to ISO: Strengthening the U.S. Voice in International Standardization, will explore the processes and operating procedures of ANSI-accredited U.S. TAGs to the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). Crucial information about accreditation, membership, voting requirements and rules for developing positions will be presented, as well as tips on how to be an effective international delegate at ISO committee meetings. This course will be taught by staff from ANSI's ISO Team (ISOT).

Course #205, ISO Secretariat Operations: Taking the Secret out of the Secretariat, will be held on Wednesday, November 11.
