Can organizations obtain certification against ISO 31000?

Can organizations obtain certification against ISO 31000?
A . Yes, organizations of any type or size can obtain certification against ISO 31000
B . Yes, but only organizations that manufacture products can obtain an ISO 31000 certification
C . [No, organizations cannot obtain certification against ISO 31000, as the standard provides only guidelines

Answer: C

Explanation:

ISO 31000 is an international standard that provides guidelines for risk management. It is a framework that helps organizations develop a risk management strategy to effectively manage risk, taking into consideration their specific contexts. However, ISO 31000 is not designed to be used as a certifiable standard; instead, it offers principles, a framework, and a process for managing risk. Unlike other ISO standards, such as ISO/IEC 27001 for information security management systems, which are certifiable, ISO 31000 does not have a certification process because it does not specify any requirements that an organization must comply with. Therefore, option C is the correct answer because ISO 31000 is intended to provide guidelines and is not certifiable.
