FAQ

Why has the website changed?

STAND wants to reach out to even more users. STAND has therefore conducted a project to make the recommended standards and guidelines easier available. This is all about making them more relevant, easier to understand, easier to live up to, but also to present them on multiple platforms and in other forms than today. The new website is designed to be an interactive tool with a greater amount of searchable information, and available on alternative platforms such as PC, laptop and mobile phone.

What’s new in STAND?

The old recommended standards and guidelines have been rewritten. They are now sliced into logical / themed parts and placed into a process-oriented structure, where they naturally belong. For users, this means that everything that relates to a particular process is now collected in one place.

Each part of the standards / guidelines are interactive where you can navigate from a high level to a more detailed level, are searchable, and can be downloaded as pdf documents.

Additionally, a set of animations has been developed. Some animations are aimed to simplify understanding of a particular process, while other animations explain overall what STAND is, what is important when you want to live up to STAND, or to give an overview of a process.

STAND is now available in English!

The new name to the full set of recommended standards and guidelines is STAND Framework.
