CRIC is pleased to have three ISO 20252:2019 leaders presenting this webinar. Don Ambrose, International Chair of the ISO/TC 225 (technical committee), and Annie Pettit, Chair of the Canadian Mirror Committee for ISO/TC 225, will provide background and describe the benefits of compliance. Juliana Wood, Managing Director of CIRQ, the Insights Associations accredited certification body, will outline the core requirements as well as the requirements of each Annex.

Although CRIC will not require agencies to undergo the full ISO certification, agency members will be required to review and publicly declare compliance with the ISO 20252:2019 standard.
“CRIC member agencies following best practices will already meet most of the standard’s requirements,” stated Gary Bennewies, Chair of CRIC. “Complying with ISO 20252:2019 further demonstrates the commitment of CRIC member agencies to adhere to the highest quality and best research practices available globally.”
