The IEEE P7000™ series of standards projects under development represents a unique addition to the collection of over 1,900 global IEEE standards and projects. Whereas more traditional standards have a focus on technology interoperability, functionality, safety, and trade facilitation, the IEEE P7000 series addresses specific issues at the intersection of technological and ethical considerations. Like its technical standards counterparts, the IEEE P7000 series empowers innovation across borders and enables societal benefit.

The Ethics Certification Program for Autonomous and Intelligent Systems (ECPAIS) has the goal to create specifications for certification and marking processes that advance transparency, accountability, and reduction in algorithmic bias in autonomous and intelligent systems. ECPAIS intends to offer a process and define a series of marks by which organizations can seek certifications for their processes around the A/IS products, systems, and services they provide.
