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.
