Manager of Quality/Organizational Excellence Refresher

Why Attend

Become a quality expert for your organization. The Manager of Quality/Organizational Excellence (CMQ/OE) professional is ready to make the right quality-related decisions at any level of the organization. It is presented in a way that reinforces current knowledge, re-introduces applications that may not be used every day, explains the rationale for use, and highlights both multiple choice and constructed-response sample questions.

Course Methodology

This is not an introductory course but one that is intended for those planning to sit for the certified quality manager exam. However, the topics are covered in such sufficient detail so that people with little advanced knowledge of the concepts will be able to master them with practice.

Each topic is presented in a practical, easy to follow manner that emphasizes the practical application of the tools covered. Participants will be given the opportunity to practice tools during the course as well as with optional homework exercises. A comprehensive manual, designed for use as an exam reference book, is provided to each attendee which provides a review of exam topics as well as several sample exams.
