Many new advancements have been made in QFD over the last few years. If it has
been more than a year since you attended the QFD
Green Belt® Course, we strongly recommend
this refresher course.
The QFD Green Belt® UPDATE Course
is a half-day, semi-private continuing education
exclusively for those who have attended the QFD Institute's QFD Green Belt®
Course in the past.
Created in response to students'
request to help keep the momentum going, this refresher course offers you an
opportunity to update and enhance the QFD knowledge and skills learned in your
previous course.
You can bring your QFD samples for critique and coaching, or send
your questions in advance.
Attendees of this Course will receive the latest release of the
Green Belt® training manual and templates and a 1-year extension of the
provisional Green Belt status. Your course registration also includes the 2-day
International Symposium on QFD
(9/24-9/25) and a networking reception.
Most importantly, those who are ready to step up to the next
level are invited to attend the QFD
Black Belt® Certificate Course (Sept. 27 - Oct. 1) on the same trip.
We look forward to reconnecting with you again this September in Portland,
Oregon and helping move forward your new product / business projects and
career with QFD.
