A one-day awareness programme for those requiring an introduction to the ISO 9000 series standards and ISO 9001:2008 and how it can be used to develop and improve quality management systems.

Introduction
This foundation course gives an introduction to the most widely used standard for Quality Management in the world. Creation of a successful quality system relies on more than reading the text in the standard; it demands an understanding of requirements and a considered application of the standard to the organisation. The course will provide delegates with an insight into the important world of quality standards, their development and the certification process.

Who Should Attend?
Specially designed for managers, supervisors, those with potential quality roles or anyone wishing to understand and assess the impact and relevance of quality management to their organisations. Also useful to anyone who needs an introduction to quality assurance or those wishing to attend the registered 2-day auditor course without prior experience of quality systems.

Course Objectives
This course will equip delegates with an understanding of the development and application of Quality Management techniques and how the ISO 9001:2008 standard is interpreted and implemented. On completion of the course we expect delegates to be able to:

  • Describe the purpose of a quality management system with relevance to the 8 principles of quality management
  • Explain the purpose, content and interrelationships of ISO 9000, ISO 9001:2008, and ISO 9004
