Target Group

New colleagues becoming QPs, but also experienced QPs looking for continuous training and enhancement of their soft skills.

Objectives

The QP job requires interaction with others. It is so much more than sitting at the desk certifying batches. A QP is not expected to have all the necessary qualifications and experience from day one. But a QP needs to learn and grow in the role. Education and knowledge are important for fulfilling the tasks and responsibilities. Besides that, experience and leadership skills are important when it comes to interacting with colleagues, management, other departments and authorities. Leadership skills help the QP to function in teams and organisations as a whole.


Programme

  • Introduction and objectives
  • Situational leadership and leadership skills for the QP
  • How a QP needs to demonstrate Leadership
  • Motivating and engaging people
  • Decision making (critical question mapping)
  • Examples
  • Time management skills
