Center. Comprehensive Training To Support Productivity and Quality
QPA has a comprehensive suite of online courses to support
productivity and quality improvement initiatives. Since 1987 when we released our first training
program, Introduction to ISO 9000, quality professionals from Fortune 500 companies to small manufacturers
have looked to QPA for comprehensive content, reliable service, and an ever-growing product
line.
Our classes are some of the most reasonably priced. That's especially important today with shrinking budgets and the need to continuously improve product and service. The reasonable price doesn't mean inferior quality. It means we don't
have fancy offices and fancy furniture. Low overhead on our part results in great content and
prices for you.
Qualified Instructors

Our trainers must pass a competency evaluation for each course they teach. They must have at least ten years experience in the subject and industry before working with our customers. We will not send an instructor or auditor to you that
is not qualified for the job and has not actually worked in the industry.
Who to choose and
what delivery method for your training
Finding and choosing the right type of
training and venue has become more complex over the past ten years.
Instructor led courses provide the best
overall learning experience for the money. That is if the instructor is qualified and can answer the students'
questions. In other words, it is learner-centered and not content-centered.
The next best learner-centered method is
online classes or sometimes called Eclasses. You can see the selection of our online courses by clicking on the button in the navigation bar. Read the
course descriptions. You'll notice that each of our courses come with personal coaching. If you have questions or
want assistance with a topic, we are here for you.
I personally vouch from experience that
having personal coaching available is truly beneficial and unique.
Here are a few examples from my own personal experience with online courses.
