Investors in People is the National Standard which sets a level of good practice for training and development of people to achieve business goals. Developed during 1990 by the National Training Task Force in partnership with leading national business, personnel, professional and employee organisations it was supported by the Employment Department. It was extensively tested during 1991 by Training and Enterprise Councils (TECs) and Local Enterprise Companies (LECs) and due to the experiences of the UK's most successful organisations, large and small, representing all sectors of the UK economy, being very positive, the Standard received the full endorsement of the wide range of interested parties.

The Investors in People Standard provides a framework at a national level for improving business performance and competitiveness. A planned approach to setting and communicating business objectives and developing people to meet these objectives allows all this to be acheived. The result, is that what people can do and are motivated to do, matches what the organisation needs them to do and these processes are all a part of a continuous improvement culture.
