Not only technical specifications
consensus on privacy
consensus on quality
documented best practices in Learning, Education and Training
In practice, standards could be consensus on any process!

RS3G - Rome Student
Systems and Standards Group
The Bologna Process is mandating attention to exchange of student and curriculum data between Higher Education Institutions – RS3G is taking on the role of an influential reference point in this market.
CEN/TC 353 Information and Communication Technologies for Learning, Education and Training
CEN/ISSS Workshop on Learning Technologies
Scope CEN Technical Committee 353
To produce standards in the field of information and communication technologies relating to learning, education and training. The European Standards (EN), Technical Specifications (TS) and Technical Reports (TR) that are developed will have a well-defined European scope. These may also include:
Guidelines for the implementation of international standards from a European perspective
mature CWAs converted into standards if appropriate
Europeanization of national standards
Current work items TC 353
Curriculum Exchange Formats and vocabularies
European Learning Mobility Model
Adoption of ISO/IEC 19796-1 (LET Quality Management, Assurance and Metrics - part 1)
In pipeline
Metadata on Learning Opportunities
Adoption of ISO/IEC 24751 (Accessibility)
Standardisation Work Timeframe
As Standard should be available within a maximum of 36 months

CEN/ISSS WS-LT Objectives
Encourage participation in global initiatives
Create specifications, agreements, guidelines or recommendations where appropriate
Provide a forum for the development and implementation of requirements-driven Learning Technologies
Carefully examining and taking into account the various effects on learning and training technology standards
Current WS-LT Work Items
A Simple Publishing Interface for Learning Object Repositories
Metadata for Learning Opportunities
Curriculum Exchange Format
Agricultural learning resource metadata application profiles
Participation in European
Standardisation
CEN TC 353: Trough national standards bodies
CEN/ISSS WS-LT: Open for all
Liaison with ISO/IEC JTC1 SC36
Consortia contributions to European
standardisation
Consortia develops specifications for fast-tracking
Or, consortia participate in standards fora, e.g. CEN/ISSS WS-LT
Model the Domain
How do LT standards relate to educational practice?
