Summary


In April 2015 ServiceIQ invited via its local agent teachers of tourism, operators and officials in the Cook Islands to contribute to the review of the standards. Most standards required only minor changes. This was coordinated in the Cook Islands and the required changes were endorsed and communicated to the standards setting body, which implemented them.
