Overview: When the Business Education Council of Niagara, Canada, achieved ISO 9001:2000 certification recently, it was seen by associated industry education bodies and sponsors as a “major breakthrough” that would hopefully spread through the US and Canada, and a “significant step forward” for the non-profit sector in terms of accountability in the eyes of clients, sponsors and funders. Achieving certification to an ISO 9000 quality management standard is a growing trend in the service sector, including non-profit organizations. In simple terms ISO 9000 is a powerful tool to stimulate the alliance between education and the business community.
