Public standards library
Certiqual standards state what is assessed, how evidence is interpreted and which version supported a recognition decision. Historical versions remain identifiable.
A decision always points to one named standard version.
Scope, sections and core criteria are accessible to applicants and the public.
Superseded versions are retained where they supported historical decisions.
