The EQUASS Consultant training sessions teach consultants how to support and advise organisations throughout the implementation of EQUASS criteria and the EQUASS certification process. This training applies to both EQUASS Assurance and EQUASS Excellence certification programmes.
A focus of the training is to guide consultants in their understanding of the social sector and the relevant Human-Rights-founding documents behind its approach, as well as a presentation of Quality Management in a wider context, and the interactions of EQUASS with other systems.
The consultants that complete this 4-day training programme, including the preparation related to the training session, will receive the mention of EQUASS Recognised Consultant and will see their name published on our Recognised Consultants page. Additionally, their names will be offered to prospective clients that are looking for a consultant in their country.
The full training programme covers:
• The social service sector and its quality management systems
• The EQUASS implementation strategy
• The implementation of human rights principles for vulnerable groups in social service provision
• The sustainable maintenance of a quality system
• The outcome measurement and benchmarking techniques
• The preparation of the EQUASS application (EQUASS Assurance and EQUASS Excellence)
