Abstract	A curriculum development project began with a market survey to investigate the demand for training in quality assurance (QA). The project objective was to develop a final study program that would cater to a broad range of employees, from operative to senior management; enable employees to appreciate their potential role within a QA system; and have a flexible method of presentation. In response to survey results, a curriculum package was developed that was intended for on-site training, had a target audience of employees from a variety of job functions and with a variety of academic attainments, was flexible, and used a tutor-assisted method of delivery. The final curriculum package consisted of a general introductory curriculum augmented with the study of applications in specific industries to provide an acceptable and detailed working knowledge. Both student-centered activities and case studies were included. The package had essentially three parts: an introduction to quality assurance (six study guides and four case studies), an implementation in detail (two study guides), and quality assurance audits (two case studies). Evaluation was carried out by personal observation, questionnaires, and assessment of tutor-assisted student work in a variety of settings. (YLB)
