Course Overview

Most defects in educational outcome quality are designed in long before they are detected. Improvement in this part of quality and productivity management that is not measured tends to be reversed quietly. The method assumes participants will be challenged on their handling of the quality and productivity management capability and prepares them for it. Moving educational outcome quality from written policy into daily practice is not achieved by a single decision. It establishes a shared vocabulary for this aspect of quality and productivity management so that teams can disagree productively about it. Mature organisations treat this strand of quality and productivity management as a standing capability rather than a project that finishes. Participants come from operational and oversight roles, and both perspectives on educational outcome quality are used deliberately. The result is the confidence to make and defend decisions about the quality and productivity management capability under scrutiny. The programme ends where implementation begins, with the quality and productivity management discipline broken into steps someone can start on Monday.
