INSTITUTE OF PRODUCTIVITY & QUALITY MANAGEMENT (AIPQM)
The
Asian Institute of Productivity & Quality Management (AIPQM)
was established in 1997 as an education arm of the Malaysian
Association of Productivity (MAP). AIPQM focuses on managing
various adult education programmes, training and development
services for MAP. AIPQM is a wholly owned subsidiary of MAP
and is under its governance.
The
programmes managed by AIPQM emphasise the practical application
of skills and knowledge; they are designed to be delivered
by a series of face-to-face contact sessions with facilitators,
(integrated with a series of structured learning activities
on-the-job). The delivery allows for effective development
of learning through practices, feedback, remedial action,
reflection and review.
A
variety of training/learning methods are used: lectures, demonstrations,
action learning groups, small group discussions, peer tutors,
facilitators guided workplace projects, case studies, use
of technology, workbooks, etc. The strategies are selected
to reflect the nature of the learning outcomes and the needs
of participants. The facilitators adopt a participant-centered
and facilitative role and use the experiences of the participants
to demonstrate application of the syllabus in their workplace
activities.
MAP
is extremely particular as far as the quality delivery of
its programmes. As such, AIPQM ensures that its facilitators
have at least all these 3 attributes;
-
at least 10 years occupational experience in the area of
facilitation
-
hold a basic degree (or equivalent) in the area of facilitation,
and preferably a postgraduate qualification or a Masters
in Business Administration
-
complete a training programme in teaching adult learners….
before a letter of appointment can be issued. The aspirant
has to deliver a mock tutorial before a panel of experienced
facilitators who will assess his or her presentation skills,
knowledge and effectiveness.
