How you'll learn
Training 100 % online on the SEIUM campus, with downloadable material, recorded classes and assigned technical tutor. No fixed timetables: the student progresses at their own pace within the intake, which makes it possible to combine study with work.
Each module combines theory, guided reading of the original standard and applied exercises. The working software is Minitab, ICSMS, SAP Quality Management, Power BI, in free, academic or evaluation versions. The exercises draw on real procedures for designing market surveillance programmes for charging equipment, production conformity audits and the management of recalls of defective products. Assessment is continuous per module plus the final integrating project.
Build it end to end
Your final project follows the real engineering workflow, step by step, reviewed by your tutor.
Apply the European market surveillance framework.
Design production conformity systems.
Verify vehicles and components in service.
Design risk-based sampling and testing programmes.
Manage risks and corrective measures on products.
