Course Description
The course on Management of Quality is part of the Operations Management Training Program which includes a number of eight sections also presented as individual courses for your convenience.
Quality is an essential ingredient for any successful company. A company with quality products and services takes the time to get to know its customers and their expectations. When a company stops being committed to quality, it starts losing customers. In order to meet customers' expectations, a company must make quality a key concern at every stage of operations. From production to delivery and beyond, everyone in the company must be committed to the pursuit of quality.
Quality is a complex term. It can refer to how well a product or service meets a company's own quality standards. Or it can refer to how well a company's product or service satisfies its customers. If its customers are unhappy, a company will find it difficult to survive in the marketplace. For a quality management strategy to succeed, a company's quality standards must be aligned with its customers' quality expectations.
There are many different quality management strategies, and these can vary from organization to organization. Some quality management concepts and practices have been simplified in this course, for training purposes. Products and services are usually associated with manufacturing and service industries respectively. However, in this course, the term "product" is often used to represent "services" as well, to avoid redundancy.
Quality is crucial to manufacturing and service industries. All organizations need to set quality performance metrics and measure the performance of their products, services, and processes on an ongoing basis. Quality management has evolved over many years. It's based on a number of key principles, which stress the vital role of suppliers, organization leaders, and customers in any quality initiative.
When implementing a quality management strategy, companies can use many tools, including the transformation model and Lean Six Sigma. All these tools have the same ultimate goal – delivering quality to the customer.
This course covers many quality management principles, techniques, and tools that can be applied in service or manufacturing organizations. All employees must understand and be committed to the organization's quality management strategy. By preparing for excellence, monitoring quality, and continuously improving, an organization can become a quality leader.

The content was good, but the presentation was boring. It felt like he was just reading from a PowerPoint. No emotion, no change in tone. I will not listen to another training from him.

The course got informative as soon as I dived into the music dictionary. Its like learning a new language - First you have to practice and read bunch of stuff until you will understand a native speaker.

It is a mind blowing experience for me, I leant beyond expectations. Have never been good in front of a camera or a presentation but now, I know what and what to do to make that right. Thank you Udemy, thank you Sorin.

The lessons are prepared in a short and crisp fashion and in an easy language, which makes it easier for me to understand the concept. They are also well structured so that no part of any topic is left out.

This course provides the grounds to comprehend what is involved with Quality Management. A good point to start before taking a deeper study of this subject.
By Ali Atrushi on 5/26/2020
The Course is well structured in terms of laying down the subjects and providing the resources . The tone of voice and accent is very clear. I only have one issue regarding that the course is not very interactive in terms of the instructor reads from a writing . He has a mono tone that would lead to being distracted easily. I am writing this review in the hopes of the instructor could read this and could use it as a guider to better produce qualitative courses . Reading from a writing is not engaging , the instructor would be more helpful if he had a bigger place on the screen and could talk as if he is talking to a friend and trying to convince him. I am sure this course would become much better as it already have a strong base of structuring and resource providing. Thank you sir for the content .

Really enjoyed learning this. as a person who doesn't like that much the operations side of the business side, this has opened my mind to new and exciting possibilities to use quality tools.
By Britt Olson on 2/16/2020
I highly recommend this course if you want to improve just about any area while running a business! This course offers various types of charts and spread sheets to help guide, plan, improve, understand those areas that may need improved.
