Quality leadership through a new lens

The quality profession is at a watershed. The role of the Quality Professional has never before been so blurred. How ready are you to embrace the future? Where do you need to grow personally to become a leader in quality?

Our Research based Diploma confronts a challenging environment. To be truly effective in any organisation, strengths in the key attributes covered in this programme are essential.


Research based Diploma in Quality Leadership

The Diploma will give you all the specific quality related competencies and generic management skills.

  • In our 9 unit course you will learn the tools and methods and where and when to deploy them.

  • You will develop strategic skills and become systems thinker, honing skills in organisational design and Hoshin Kanri.

  • You will develop strong skills in operational excellence: lean six sigma, programme management and facilitation as well as risk management skills.

  • Finally, you will learn more about yourself as a leader, the beliefs you operate from and how they impact performance and effectiveness.

  • From the outset you will start to build a 9 unit project that, when completed, will become a custom built implementation plan for your organisation. This will become evidence of achievement if planning to progress to higher level qualifications.


CQI Chartered Quality Professional

The CQI Competency Framework is core to the CQI Chartered Membership process.  DHI have aligned the Diploma and Higher Diploma with the requirements of Chartered Membership (CQP MCQI) ands with the criteria for the award of both Six Sigma Green and Black Belts. The requirements of the former are covered after Unit Dip004 are successfully completed assuming that this resulted in a significant Improvement project with tangible benefits to your organisation, and similarly for the Black Belt qualification after a suitable project has been completed in unit Dip009. 

We award such students Master Black Belt after they have successfully completed our Higher Diploma in Quality Leadership.

New students can apply for Foundation level membership of the CQI and upgrade to Practitioner level membership on completion of unit 5, with no application fee, just the annual membership fee. DHI have aligned our method of assignment evaluation to the CQI competency requirements so on completion of the Diploma you may apply for Chartered Quality Professional Status.




Qualifications

Following completion of our Diploma in Quality Leadership, the student can upgrade to Higher Diploma in Quality Leadership course which, together with the journey into coaching will ensure you continue to progress your career with an internationally recognised qualification by allowing you to develop not only your knowledge and skills but those of your work colleagues also.  This course will help you to become a recognised quality professional and an Associate of DHI enabling you to use DHI materials in your own organisation.
