NEW MESMA ONLINE COURSE TO BOOST QUALITY MANAGEMENT SKILLS IN FURTHER EDUCATION

A new webinar series from online QA specialists Mesma will enable further education professionals to enhance their understanding of workplace quality management and continuous improvement.

Running from January to March 2018, the six-part ‘Developing Quality Improvement Strategies in Further Education and Skills’ course is aimed at those in the education and training sectors who have quality responsibilities as part of their role but want to boost their professional skills.

The course will be delivered across six sessions, starting with an introduction to quality management covering key principles, methodologies and how quality can improve the effectiveness of an organisation.

Other sessions will include leading and implementing change, advice on choosing quality management tools and guidance on how to write a self-assessment plan. Techniques for developing and sustaining continuous improvement plans and preparing an organisation for an Ofsted inspection, will also be covered.

Mesma’s director Carole Loader said: “We have designed the webinar content for individuals who are entering into or have quality responsibilities as part of their role. Collectively this is for people who want to advance their understanding of quality management and continuous improvement.

“We have also created a new self-evaluation framework called ‘Develop’, which allows delegates to carry out a pre-course assessment, and write and monitor their own continuous professional development plan as they progress through the course.”
