(CLP) Programs
Appleton Greene corporate training programs are all process-driven. They are used as vehicles to implement tangible business processes within clients’ organizations, together with training, support and facilitation during the use of these processes. Corporate training programs are therefore implemented over a sustainable period of time, that is to say, between 1 year (incorporating 12 monthly workshops), and 4 years (incorporating 48 monthly workshops). Your program information guide will specify how long each program takes to complete. Each monthly workshop takes 6 hours to implement and can be undertaken either on the client’s premises, an Appleton Greene serviced office, or online via the internet. This enables clients to implement each part of their business process, before moving onto the next stage of the program and enables employees to plan their study time around their current work commitments. The result is far greater program benefit, over a more sustainable period of time and a significantly improved return on investment.
Appleton Greene uses standard and bespoke corporate training programs as vessels to transfer business process improvement knowledge into the heart of our clients’ organizations. Each individual program focuses upon the implementation of a specific business process, which enables clients to easily quantify their return on investment. There are hundreds of established Appleton Greene corporate training products now available to clients within customer services, e-business, finance, globalization, human resources, information technology, legal, management, marketing and production. It does not matter whether a client’s employees are located within one office, or an unlimited number of international offices, we can still bring them together to learn and implement specific business processes collectively. Our approach to global localization enables us to provide clients with a truly international service with that all important personal touch. Appleton Greene corporate training programs can be provided virtually or locally and they are all unique in that they individually focus upon a specific business function. All (CLP) programs are implemented over a sustainable period of time, usually between 1-4 years, incorporating 12-48 monthly workshops and professional support is consistently provided during this time by qualified learning providers and where appropriate, by Accredited Consultants.
Executive summary
Quality Maturity
This is a comprehensive program for assessing and advancing the quality maturity of your FDA-regulated quality management system. Quality maturity is a measure of how well your processes, practices, and systems are developed, implemented, and ingrained such that you meet and exceed quality standards, regulatory requirements, and customer expectations.
This program comprises twelve (12) carefully crafted modules designed to augment every dimension of your FDA-regulated Quality Management System (QMS) and related Good Manufacturing Practices (GMPs) in order to achieve a high level of quality maturity.
Through the application of the 4E improvement methodology—Examine, Envision, Execute, and Elevate—we will systematically enhance the efficacy of every aspect of your quality management system.
Through the application of practical and systematic quantitative and qualitative assessment tools, we will determine your system’s current state of maturity.
Finally, using established maturity benchmarks for your industry, we will set your new target maturity level and the precise improvement objectives to propel your system to new heights of performance.
The tools and benchmarks used in this program are based on documented and verified best practices for your industry, including cosmetics, food and beverage, dietary supplements, and drugs. These tools will help you exceed all FDA requirements and will allow your company to achieve new heights in quality maturity.
What is Quality Management Maturity?
Quality Maturity refers to the level of sophistication of your organization with respect to its Quality Management System. It is a measure of how well your processes, practices, and systems are developed, implemented, and ingrained such that you meet and exceed quality standards,
regulatory requirements, and customer expectations.
Why is Quality Maturity important?
Safe and Quality Product: There are many reasons to enhance your quality maturity. For FDA-regulated industries, foremost among those reason is the need to provide consumers with an exceptionally safe and satisfying product, whether it be cosmetics, dietary supplements, food or beverage, or drugs.
FDA Initiative: Recently, the FDA has announced its Quality Management Maturity (QMM) initiative. There is considerable dispute as to whether the FDA should be getting involved in rating the quality maturity of FDA-regulated organizations. Many trade organizations would prefer that this remained in the purview of voluntary programs, such as this program.
False Motivation Effect: Fundamental to understanding why you should target advanced quality maturity is the acceptance of the fact that when organizations target mere compliance, they will inevitably fall short of that goal. This is due to the false motivation effect. The false motivation effect states that actions based on rules alone (the false motivation) are inadequate for adapting to the fast-paced and ever-changing environment of today’s markets. Only a target of excellence will lead to the organizational maturity capable of maintaining and exceeding compliance.
Enhance Competitive Advantage: The advantages to elevating your quality maturity are too many to elaborate here. In short, a high level of quality maturity will lead to a better company culture, enhanced customer satisfaction, cost savings, reduced liability, and an overall competitive advantage.
Increased Profitability: The pursuit of excellence is the strongest driving force of profitability.
