# Create a standard from a template

Create a standard by using available templates within your organization. This approach saves time and promotes consistency compared to building a new standard manually.

## Before you begin

Role required: sn\_icw\_igt.standard\_author

## Procedure

1.  Navigate to the **Standards hub**.

2.  Select **New standard**.

3.  On the Guided task tile, select **Use template**.

    The available templates are displayed, with a tile for each template. You can search them by key words or filter them by template category.

4.  To apply a desired template, locate its tile and select **Use template**.

5.  Follow the steps for creating and publishing a standard.

    To learn more about the following steps, see [Publish an Industrial Guided Task standard](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/industrial-connected-workforce/digital-factory-workspace/publish-industrial-guided-task-standard.md).


## Result

A new standard is created and displayed in the Standards hub. The standard is in either the Draft or Published state.
