Quality Management Officer (QMB-TÜV)
As the second module (Advanced Level) of the TÜV SÜD Academy’s modular quality management training programme, the ‘Quality Management Representative – QMB-TÜV’ course qualifies participants to establish, develop and maintain a quality management system in accordance with ISO 9001.
Quality management officers act on behalf of the Managing Director and serve as a link between management and the operational value chain. They oversee fundamental systemic aspects, lead improvement projects and promote risk-based thinking across the company’s divisions.
Smoothly running processes and satisfied customers are the key to an organisation’s success. For many companies, an effective quality management system is crucial to remaining competitive. Quality management representatives make a significant contribution to this by being able to,
- to implement the requirements of the ISO 9001:2015 quality management standard
- Managing and optimising processes
- to establish and maintain the management system documentation
- to set up an effective error and complaints management system
- to use appropriate methods of measurement and testing
- to drive forward the continuous improvement process (CIP)
- to successfully prepare the organisation for a certification audit
On the one hand, course participants deepen their understanding of the principles and key concepts of quality management; on the other hand, they broaden their methodological and professional competence. In addition, they engage in an in-depth examination of the operational requirements and the implementation of ISO 9001:2015 within the organisation.
In collaboration with the TÜV Süd Academy in Munich, we are providing you with this second QM module to support your career path. This may make your entry into the profession easier, and you can build on it later with further training. This is because the QMB serves as the foundation for qualifying as a QM auditor or quality manager.
