Participants on the Level 7 Award in Quality Technology develop a sense of mastery in using statistical techniques and Lean/Six Sigma methods. As they grasp fundamental quality principles, learners become autonomous to select and apply an array of useful project and data tools/statistics for continuous improvement.

A higher percentage of future manufacturing employees will be front-line workers using the latest technologies to make real-time decisions.

This programme amplifies their confidence and competence to make responsible decisions by putting the right statistical tools in their hands.

The course content is integrated with real-world data for work-relevant projects and problem-solving. This 100% virtual course is easy to fit around busy work schedules as the content is self-paced with evening tuition.
