Trainers, the Key to our Training and Mentoring Programs

SPQA’s success and the success of the organizations it serves depends in great part on the dedication and the service of its volunteer Trainers and Mentors. We want to thank our Trainers for the ongoing support they provide the SPQA Examination process and our training customers.

Trainers come from all professions and have a wide variety of experiences. They all share a mutual love of helping others to better understand the Baldrige Excellence Framework. The team provides training for Examiners as part of the annual examination process, provides Baldrige Criteria training through our quarterly criteria training offerings, and mentors organizations as they work to align their processes with the Baldrige Excellence Framework. Trainers are drawn from our Board of Examiners. All have extensive experience in the practical aspects of supporting organizations with improvement as well as the examination process.
