About your course
We look forward to welcoming you to our Boardroom in the Victorian West End of Aberdeen, when you join us to gain or improve your understanding of Quality Management Systems on your ISO 9001 Foundation course.
This is a single-day programme, beginning at 9.00 am, and closing at 5.00 pm. There are two 15-minute refreshment breaks (mid-morning and mid-afternoon), and at 12:30, a 45-minute lunch break.
For the benefit of all participants, all mobile devices must be switched off when in the training suite.
Please note that attendance at all sessions is a requirement of the course. There is no final, formal exam. Instead, you will be assessed during a series of relatively stress-free, practical, and written exercises throughout the course.
Successful participants will be awarded with a certificate of completion issued by the Scottish Quality Management Centre. This will be posted to the correspondence address given at the time of booking – normally within 14 days of completion. If you’d like to order a duplicate certificate for your own personal files, you can still purchase one.

About the venue
SQMC's Aberdeen branch is located at Skene Business Centre, 7 Queen's Gardens, AB15 4YD, in the city's conservation area - and easily accessible to Aberdeen's many attractions, parks, and beaches.
For delegates traveling by car, there is limited, free parking in the car park to the rear of the building (accesible from Queen's Lane North). Sat Nav users should enter AB15 4DY as the destination postcode, and once in car park '7QG', turn left for visitors' parking spaces. Early arrival is recommended, as spaces are allocated on a first-come, first-served (and there are other businesses in the same building).
You can view Skene Business Centre's location and get detailed directions at this Google Maps link.
If you require overnight accommodation, the Dutch Mill Hotel is just across the road, and the Atholl Hotel is an easy 10 minute walk from Skene Business Centre. Both offer free parking for residents.
Dining
We provide a two-course sit-down lunch in the Dutch Mill Hotel's restaurant, and you may be asked to place your order from the menu at the morning break, to avoid a wait at lunchtime. It’s your ‘main meal’ of the day, so if you’re staying overnight, you won’t have to splash out at dinnertime!
If you have any food allergies, we probably already know about this. If you’d like to make sure, please call our training department as soon as possible on 0333 939 0045.
Dress code
Casual or business casual.
Pre-course reading.
As preparation for your training, please take 10 minutes out of your day to read our short article: "A Short Overview of Quality".
