"I would recommend SimpleQuE to anyone on certification implementation or Quality Tools Training."

Dan Mills, Magna Powertrain
"Although learning to audit to TS-16949 is difficult, SimpleQuE’s command of related quality knowledge is amazing."

David Godfrey, Yoder Die Casting
"I can honestly say that I could sit and listen to you teach all day long for weeks and not get bored. You took it and made it so simple (no pun intended) that now it comes as second nature to me."

Terry Beres, WorkflowOne
"I've gotten a lot of the workshops and look forward to attending more down the road."

David Banks, Cincinnati Gearing Systems

"For a two day course, I can’t imagine a more comprehensive method of qualifying my organization to become internal auditors."

Greg Brown, Brown Precision Inc
"Best explanation of auditing I ever had. Makes more sense and I have been doing internal audits for 9 years."

Julie Ruchty, Fort Recovery Industries
"Most valuable was getting more people involved and owning issues. The course causes you to focus on more than band-aid fixes."

Craig Walden, WorkflowOne
"Most valuable was going through the fishbone and other tools and using them in an actual problem we had. I was very impressed with what we can do internally with this information."

Jeff Price, WorkflowOne
"I really like the process audit approach. It seems to be much easier."
