This is the 14th regulars' table with Next Generation DKE – and the first international regulars' table with AFNOR-CEF (Association Française de Normalisation - Comité Electrotechnique Français/French Electrotechnical Committee)
Topic: Conformity assessment and international cooperation - that fits!
Imagine someone inviting you to an event where …
- you could learn about conformity assessment and
- network with international colleagues in standardization!
Sounds good? Keep on reading!
“Conformity assessment is any activity to determine, directly or indirectly, that a process, product, service or personal competencies meets relevant technical standards and fulfills relevant requirements.” (IEC, 2022).
Ok – and what exactly does that mean? That is one of the questions we want to discuss on January 26, 2023 with Pierre Selva, VP Conformity Assessment & Market Surveillance at Schneider Electric and IEC’s Treasurer, in our 14th regulars' table with a twist! We will not only kick off the next year, but also have the first international regulars' table held in English. For that AFNOR-CEF and DKE have joined forces and we are happy to invite you to celebrate and discuss with each other!
Together we are going to talk about the conformity assessment in general and how it can open the market. We want to look at the connections between conformity assessment, market surveillance and standardization, to see how standardization is making its impact. We will look at the workforce diversity in standardization, and we are looking forward to personal experience from Pierre’s 30+ years of experience in the field.
We invite you to an informal and exciting evening, where you can learn new information and network with members from the Next Generation DKE and AFNOR-CEF. Remember – standardization is an international challenge.
