EU Organisational Compliance Institute

Community

What is the EU Organisational Compliance Institute (EU-OCI)?

Why was the EU-OCI founded?

The EU_OCI has been formed to support the European Commission's ambition to disseminate the EU Directive in cybersecurity within the European Union institutions, European agencies, service providers, public administrations in the Member States, and the European private sector.

What is the EU-OCI?

We are a not-for-profit membership organization. Our members are project management consultancy and training organizations, NIS2 user organizations, and also include the examination and certification institute that created the public NIS2 certification program.

What does the EU-OCI do?

EU-OCI's goal is to facilitate the implementation of the various EU Directives and management methodology in public and private projects as intended by the Center of Excellence within the European Commission.
The EU-OCI has set out three main activity areas to achieve this goal:
1. Auditing the supported public certification and trainer accreditation program, based on the EU commission's guidelines.
2. Promoting the adoption of EU Directives in European public and private organizations
3. Facilitate access to learning materials and certification for individuals who want to increase their employability.
