Global Perspectives and Strategies for Education about Standardization Workshop Administration Building 101 Standards users and developers in industry, government, and academia need well educated standards experts to reflect current standardization needs and effectively participate in the standards developing process. Education about standardization is an effort to advance and expand the theory and practice of standardization by informing current and future standards users and participants in the process about: 1) the role and importance of standardization in facilitating commerce and trade; 2) advancing the business of government; 3) facilitating commercialization of technologies; and 4) supporting innovation.
