COPQ Template
Quality Council of Indiana - An overwhelming amount of certification preparation material exists here. In fact, QCI material is the most widely used preparation material for ASQ exams.

Basic Action Plan- For those times when you don't need a full-blown Gantt Chart or other project management tool, a basic action plan is for you. As shown above, our action plan allows up to 185 tasks to be entered (you'll likely never need that many) and also automatically adjusts font and background colors to correspond to the action item status. Six unique item status identifiers are available to provide better project management than the simple Red, Yellow, Green method.
We're giving this away to our E-zine subscribers as a way of thanking you for your continued support. Download by clicking the download link... don't worry, it's free!
