Drafting Work Group – June 2012

This report summarizes activities of the IAESB Drafting Work Group since the March meeting. Key actions included the review of International Education Standards (IES) 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 8, with detailed comments provided to relevant taskforces. Consistency across IES documents was a major focus, highlighting substantial efforts in identifying “common paragraphs.” Minor inconsistencies were also addressed for clarification. The group noted formatting issues and identified a minor conforming change to IES 7 to align with updated terminology. The glossary management is now a priority to pinpoint new terms for future exposure drafts.
