Scope and certificate

Can I ask a question regarding out status of this ISO certificate for an instance? We are the extension campus university and our main campus is already ISO certified granted we are extension campus not part of it, do we also need to apply for an ISO certificate?

Answer:

Any ISO certificate has a description of the scope of the management system. Please check if the scope of the QMS of the main campus includes your facilities. Sometimes management decides that certification is just for one part of the activities (like a hotel that does not include the restaurant and the pool), sometimes the same certificate is applicable to one organization with different sites.

The following material will provide you more information about the scope:
