Bespoke and tailored courses are available on request.
As well as our regular curriculum of courses, many organisations hire SQMC to develop special courses, to meet their own, unique needs. This can be more cost and time-effective, giving our trainers the opportunity to combine subjects, or expand on aspects that are most important to our client's particular business operations.
Examples of bespoke and 'hybrid' courses:
- Combined Quality and Environmental auditor training.
- Combined Quality and Safety auditor training.
- Combined Environmental and Safety auditor training.
- Failure Modes and Effects Analysis (FMEA) workshops.
- Eight Disciplines ("8D") Problem-Solving Process workshops.
- Process Mapping materclasses.
- Statistical Process Control (SPC) workshops.
- General workshops presenting ISO benefits, for Senior Management.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are SQMC auditor qualifications recognised worldwide?
Every SQMC auditor course promotes best practice auditing guidelines of ISO 19,011:2018, and satisfies ISO's requirements for staff competency and training (clauses 7.2a and 9.2c of the Standards). An SQMC training certificate is therefore accepted during 3rd party Certification Body audits, universally.
Where can I attend a public course?
SQMC have public training venues throughout the UK, Ireland and Continental Europe. Our headquarters are Scotland - just 20 minutes from Edinburgh International Airport. This is where most of our public courses are held, closely followed by Aberdeen.
