10、2014(E)ForewordISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for whi

11、ch a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all m

12、atters of electrotechnical standardization.The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This

13、document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or al

14、l such patent rights. Details of any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and

16、ormationThe committee responsible for this document is Technical Committee ISO/TC 232, Learning services outside formal education.iv ISO 2014 All rights reservedBS ISO 29991:2014ISO 29991:2014(E)IntroductionThe objective of this International Standard is to specify requirements for language learning

17、 services outside formal education. This International Standard uses the term “learning services”, rather than “training”, in order to encourage a focus on the learner and the results of the learning process, and to emphasize the full range of options available for language learning.This Internation

18、al Standard is intended to set minimum requirements for language learning services. The aims of this International Standard are:a) to improve transparency and enhance the credibility of the language learning services market;b) to protect consumers by preventing prejudicial practices;c) to improve th

19、e quality of language learning for all interested parties.This International Standard is necessary because, while in some countries the quality control of language learning services is well established, the standards applied vary greatly, and in many other countries there is limited or no regulation

20、.This International Standard incorporates the broad interdisciplinary expertise of various organizations involved in standardization: quality assurance, educational technology, programme evaluation, second language acquisition and applied linguistics, at both national and international levels.

These include any language learning services that are addresse

22、d to language learners themselves, as well as to interested parties that are acquiring the services for the benefit of learners. The key features of any such service are that the goals of learning are defined and evaluated, and that it involves interaction with the learner. The instruction can be de

23、livered face-to-face or mediated by technology, or it can be a blend of both.Entities interested in using this International Standard will include language learning service providers of all kinds and sizes, as well as associations or consortia of language learning service providers.In cases where th

24、e language learning services are provided by an organization that delivers products (goods and services) or other learning services in addition to language learning services, this International Standard only applies to language learning services.This International Standard is not specifically aimed

25、at schools, colleges and universities which provide language learning as part of a formal educational system but may be useful to them as a tool for reflection and self-evaluation.2 Terms and definitionsFor the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.2.1assessmentgatheri
