The Cyprus Organization for Standardization (CYS), aiming to ensure the quality of the services it offers through its training programmes to the public, has been reassessed by the Human Resources Development Authority (HRD) and maintains its certification for another 5 years as a Vocational Training Centre (VTC).
This certification applies to Training Centres that implement training activities in the broader field of vocational education and training and lifelong learning in general. CYS, for more than 15 years, has been assisting ANAD in creating conditions for planned and systematic training and development of the human resources of Cyprus.
In an ever-changing business and socio-economic environment, the CYS Training Centre is present in the observance of procedures to ensure the quality and effectiveness of the training and human resources development system of the stakeholders.
Bearing in mind the Agency's Strategic Action Plan, current news and the adoption of national, European and international standards, CYS plans education and training activities which it offers to the public.
In addition, the CYS Training Center, following an independent audit conducted by DQS HELLAS and the International Quality Network (IQNet), maintains from 2019 certification under CYS EN ISO 9001:2015 for its Quality Management System, and from August 2021 under CYS EN ISO 14001:2015 for the implementation of the Environmental Management System, in accordance with the requirements of this standard. As part of the implementation of the environmental system, the Organization's Training Center has assessed the environmental aspects in relation to its activities, identified its environmental impacts, and adopted measures to minimize its environmental footprint.
Dedicated to maintaining high performance and meeting its contractual obligations, CYS is continuously upgrading itself to offer quality services to provide information and training programs in the field of environmental management. Its reassessment is recognition of the stability of the Agency's policies, practices, and procedures, assuring a commitment to implementing recognized and established best practices with consistency and stability.
