How to Participate
Become a Committee Member
A technical committee will work on a few projects each year. These might include revising existing Australian Standards and technical documents, assessing International Standards for adoption in Australia, or drafting new standards for emerging industries.
A committee consists of technical experts representing various interest groups. We refer to these stakeholder groups as nominating organisations.
Nominating organisations appoint individuals as their representatives on technical committees. The organisation can approach potential nominees or individuals can approach the organisation.
Contact one of our Stakeholder Engagement Managers to discuss participation in your industry.
