Improving Quality (IQ) Cluster
Once a year, the NAG organizes a network meeting for everyone in the Aerospace & Airport Development sector who works in Quality related functions. During these meetings, current topics in the area of Quality Management will be addressed. Afterwards there will be room for discussion and networking.
The IQ Cluster is an important platform for companies to really take advantage of a broad network and to share experiences. Networking is an important part of this working group.
Topics discussed during the IQ cluster meetings are among others: Quality Management standards and trends in QM, Risk and Safety management, business continuity and competence assessment. The members of the IQ cluster are actively contributing to the agenda of our meetings.
This cluster is predominantly focused on employees of the Quality departments and their managers. Depending on the specific theme / subject of the meeting, the working group is also interesting for a wider target group (e.g. HR, general management, IT management).
To prepare the events and sessions, there is a permanent working group consisting of:

Jan Verbeek
Vice-chairman | ADSE
Jan is vice-chairman of the board and represents ADSE
