DIP 006 Quality Related Legislation and Regulations
This is the sixth unit in the Diploma in Quality Leadership course. The Research based Diploma in Quality Leadership is a blended learning course with online tutor support.
The unit requires the student to carry out a work related assignment and write a report to their CEO explaining how the various sections in the teaching materials may or may not apply to the organisation. On completion of all units the student will have a comprehensive implementation plan and also will have acquired skills which will enable them to train all levels of the organisation from the CEO through to line level.
When one considers the consequences of events such as the Grenfell Tower disaster, multiple cases of Hospitals underperforming, and other tragedies Dr Juran used to refer to dealing with these as ‘life behind the quality dikes’. Litigation related to these can and often does result in the complete destruction of company reputations. Therefore we regard this as a core unit in the Diploma.
