NENA Achieves ANSI Accreditation

Print Print this Article | Send to Colleague

For more than two decades, NENA has been the leading developer of operational and technical 9-1-1 standards. During that time, the Association has produced dozens of important standards benefiting public safety and gained recognition as the de facto standard-setting body within the 9-1-1 industry.

In an effort to further NENA’s mission of developing standards and resources for 9-1-1 systems and operations, the Association recently applied for and received accreditation by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).

"Becoming an ANSI-accredited Standards Development Organization is an important step for NENA," said Association President Barbara Jaeger, ENP. "This accreditation certifies and validates our rigorous development process. We look forward to our standards gaining wider recognition and implementation; the end result will undoubtedly be a public made safer through their use."

NENA plans to begin submitting standards for ANSI approval in the coming months.
