This course teaches participants how to use a simple, effective 7-step approach to correcting and preventing problems or nonconformities that exist anywhere in their organizations. It can help your organization satisfy management system requirements for effective corrective action.
Corrective Action and Preventive Action are primary Quality Management System (QMS) processes that have challenged most organizations. Organizations often do not get the benefits or optimum performance out of the Corrective Action or Preventive Action process due to lack of understanding of the value, failure to invest the time required, or because they are simply overwhelmed with the tasks. This course will cut through all of these roadblocks.
