You Will Learn

Integrate Quality Principles: Understand and apply foundational quality concepts like customer focus, continuous improvement, and prevention over inspection throughout the product development lifecycle.

Utilize Quality Tools: Master the application of critical tools like:

  • Design for Six Sigma (DFSS): Utilize DMAIC (Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control) principles to design products with inherent quality.
  • Design of Experiments (DOE): Plan and conduct experiments to optimize product and process designs.
  • Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA): Identify and mitigate potential failures in design and manufacturing.
  • Quality Function Deployment (QFD): Translate customer needs and expectations into design requirements.
  • Risk Management Techniques: Identify, analyze, and prioritize potential risks throughout the product development process.

Develop Robust Designs: Understand and apply principles of robust design to create products that are insensitive to variations in materials, manufacturing processes, and environmental conditions.

Conduct Design Reviews: Participate in and lead effective design reviews to assess design concepts, identify potential issues, and ensure alignment with requirements.

Implement and Maintain a Quality Management System: Understand the elements of a robust quality management system within the context of product development.

Continuous Improvement: Apply continuous improvement methodologies like Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) to refine and enhance product design and development processes.

Case Studies and Practical Applications: Engage in real-world case studies and practical exercises to apply the learned concepts to realistic scenarios.

This workshop will equip you with the knowledge and skills to integrate quality principles and practices throughout the entire product development lifecycle, leading to improved product performance, reduced costs, increased customer satisfaction, and a more competitive advantage.

I've recently completed an ISO 9001 training course specifically designed for quality managers. The course was incredibly insightful and provided me with a deeper understanding of the standard's requirements and best practices.

One of the most valuable aspects of the training was the focus on practical application. The course also helped me to develop a strong understanding of the risk-based thinking approach that underpins ISO 9001.

I would highly recommend this course to any quality manager looking to enhance their skills and knowledge. The training has already had a positive impact on my role, and I'm confident that it will continue to benefit me in the future.

Okay, so, mentoring programs about quality in design and dev, are seriously game-changing. You're not just memorizing stuff; you're actually doing it, learning the real-world quality hacks, problem-solving like a pro, and figuring out how to avoid epic fails before they happen. Contact with mentors from the first moment is natural and empathetic.

I recently completed an ISO 9001 internal auditors training course together with 3-months mentoring program, and it was a total game-changer for my career. Not only did I learn the ins and outs of the standard, but I also got hands-on experience and personalized guidance from a experienced auditor.

The training was informative, covering everything from the basics of ISO 9001 to advanced auditing techniques. I especially appreciated the focus on practical application, as it helped me understand how to use the standard in real-world situations.

The mentoring aspect was the real icing on the cake. My mentor was knowledgeable and supportive.
