During the second and third day of training, the steering committee was trained on their role in the ISO 9001:2008 Certification Process. The committee also discussed the six basic international standards that any organization/company should adhere to for it to be ISO 9001:2008 certified. One of the basic standard is the control of documents. To understand better this standard, the committee members were given the task of passing round a message by whispering to the next member. Once the message reached to the last member, its original meaning had been totaly changed. From this task, the steering committee learnt the need to document each and every process in the organization. The documentation should again be clear.
The committee also went through the Quality Management Systems Requirements for ISO 9001:2008 international standards. The eight standards were interprated in details.
The eight ISO 9001:2008 standards are:-
- Scope
- Normative references
- Terms and definitions
- Quality Management System
- Management Responsibility
- Resource Management
- Product Realization
- Measurement, Analysis and improvement
