A "typical" eQFD Workshop is a 2, 3, or a 4 day:(2+2) "implementation", which combines classroom training with focused “break-out” sessions working on real projects with real teams. Unlike many other workshops being offered by our competitors, the unique emphasis in C2C Solutions Workshops focuses on the step-by-step "How-to's" of eQFD so participants walk away with confidence and enthusiasm using the methodologies presented.
