Day 1 - Quality Management: A Practical Approach The first half of this course is designed to discuss the process of implementing the QM Standards. During the second half, participants will work on their firm's QM implementation process, including identifying potential quality risks, assessing those risks, developing responses and meeting the new QM documentation standards. Day 2 - Quality Management: The Next Steps Building on the foundations of the Quality Management: A Practical Approach course, this course shifts the emphasis from QM design documentation to developing the monitoring and documentation needed to clearly explain how a firm's QM systems address risk and to support the annual partner conclusion required under the standards with meaningful, defensible evidence.
