Training module overview

Training module overview

Training module overview

Services often evolve through experience and personal know‑how, resulting in inconsistent delivery and difficulty scaling.

In this training module, participants explore how to recognise when service design and development requirements apply, how to define a service corridor that captures the essential features and parameters of a service, and how to plan design activities. They learn to translate inputs such as customer requirements and regulatory expectations into service characteristics, apply reviews, verification and validation, and manage design changes. The module builds a foundation for creating services that can be delivered consistently across teams and locations.

Applicable environments

This module applies to organisations implementing or operating a Quality Management System (QMS) in line with ISO 9001. It focuses on how the standard’s requirements are interpreted and applied in practice within real organisational contexts.

The content is relevant for organisations seeking certification as well as for those using ISO 9001 as a reference framework to structure responsibilities, processes, and controls in the quality management domain.

Target audience

  • People involved in designing, building, operating, or improving a QMS aligned with ISO 9001

  • Executives and department heads accountable for the effectiveness and performance of a QMS

  • Those responsible for processes, policies, IT systems, risks, and controls related to quality management

  • Auditors of ISO 9001 who want to deepen their understanding of management-side best practices (not audit technique)

Decision support

Is this module for you?

It is a good fit if you…

  • implement or operate ISO 9001 in a service organisation.

  • rely on informal know-how rather than a defined service design baseline.

  • struggle with inconsistent service delivery across teams or locations.

  • need clearer control over service design changes and releases.

  • want services to be defined, verified, and changed without over-documenting.

  • implement or operate ISO 9001 in a service organisation.

  • struggle with inconsistent service delivery across teams or locations.

  • need clearer control over service design changes and releases.

  • want services to be defined, verified, and changed without over-documenting.

If most of the points above apply, this module is likely a good fit.

It may not be the best fit if you…

  • already operate a clearly defined, consistently controlled service design process.

  • are not involved in governing, evidencing, or changing services.

  • focus primarily on product design or engineering development.

  • are looking for UX, customer journey, or service innovation methods.
