Keeping you informed

We provide a rich source of material to help drive engagement, understanding, and ultimate realisation of the benefits of standards.

Webinars

Our standards update webinars in March, June, September, and December continue to be popular and are a very powerful and effective platform for engaging with our audience. They provide an easy way to understand the latest updates and are an opportunity to ask questions with real time responses from technical experts within RSSB and from key users across industry who were involved in the drafting process.

The relevant extracts of the webinars are embedded within the Standards Catalogue, making it easier for users to access high quality information when applying standards.

Web pages

In addition to the familiar Standards Catalogue, our website has a ‘latest updates to standards' page where users can find summaries of all standards issued in the latest catalogue and any point releases issued in the previous three months. This information is structured into the six standards topic areas.

This page also has the interactive standards update briefing presentation slide deck. This non-linear presentation provides users with a ready-made briefing pack containing more detailed information on any changes made to standards, hyperlinks to updated content on the website, and an overview of standards currently being drafted that will be ready for consultation or publishing in the next six months.

All new or updated standards are published with a single page briefing note, which has an overview of the contents in the standard, details of any changes made, as well as a summary of the quantified benefits the standard will make to industry. These simple documents are an excellent executive summary to each standard.

Briefings

On request, RSSB continues to provide tailored briefings to members on the standards framework. We explain the role of standards, how to get the best out of them, and give detail around specific standards. This helps to increase members’ understanding, ensuring that they get the most out of RSSB standards and the supporting content on the website.
