Welcome to the world of IEEE Standards Development Online!

Getting involved in IEEE standards provides you the opportunity to network with industry peers, broaden your understanding of industry and technology, and gain familiarity with the content of standards in which you are involved—facilitating early compliance and anticipating market requirements.

There are many ways to get involved in IEEE standards. Some include:

• INITIATE: Submit a PAR, and join a working group
• PRODUCE: Write the draft, participate in sponsor balloting, and learn about the standard approval process
• MANAGE: Learn about how the draft becomes a published standard, and the maintenance required

Each IEEE standard follows a set path from concept to completion, which adheres to the principles of due process, openness and consensus. These principles allow for equity and fair play so no one interest category dominates the process, and any organization or person with a desire to participate in a proposed standard can do so.
