University-enterprise partnership for total quality management

Objective

Companies are increasingly in need of graduates and young professionals with total quality management skills. The main goal of this project is the production of a manual containing guidelines on how to introduce TQM in higher education curricula.

Most project work will take place through Internet. A specific website
(www.kahoslg.be/projects/TQM) has been developed to this end. Further to an eliminary needs analysis, a first draft of the guidelines will be made. Practical case studies will be drawn up in each participating country. The manual will be published and distributed according to a marketing plan agreed by the partners. A final international conference will be organised on the theme: "The European universities and the need for TQM qualifications".

Impact
Close co-operation between university and corporate representatives of the four EU countries participating in the project. This will ensure that the guidelines are adapted to the needs of the labour market.
