Information Systems Examination Board
The Information Systems Examinations Board (ISEB) is an examination awarding body and a part of BCS, The Chartered Institute for IT.
Initially started as a collaboration between the National Computing Centre (NCC) and BCS for the creation of the 'Certificate in Systems Analysis and Design' for the then Systems Analysis Examination Board. In 1989 a new qualification in Project Management was developed. This was the start of an expansion of the portfolio of qualifications and therefore the Systems Analysis Examination Board made the decision to change its name to Information Systems Examination Board (ISEB).
