Winter Haven FL — Oxebridge has launched two Facebook groups for users, auditors, consultants, trainers and other stakeholders of ISO 9001 and AS9100 quality management system standards. The purpose of these groups is to discuss the standards, exchange ideas and contact information, and to grow 
the acceptance of ISO 9001 and AS9100 in general.
The ISO 9001 User Group’s direct link is http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=109599275742378. It is open to all companies and individuals with an interest in ISO 9001. Members will be allowed to promote their companies and services, although repeated spamming will be moderated.
“To date, Facebook hasn’t had much ISO 9001 or AS9100 content,” Christopher Paris, the founder of both Oxebridge and the Facebook group, said. “It’s a great platform for social networking within quality management, and a great way to discuss ways to improve, promote and just chat about the standards.”
A similar AS9100 Users Group has been established, with its own link here:

For both groups, users may post files (within copyright and trademark restrictions), discussions, photos, videos and more. All such posts must be on topic.
As with all Facebook groups, admission is open and free. A Facebook account, also free, is required.
