Who should take this QFD course in Japan?

The course suits product designers, design and quality engineers, product managers, marketing and R&D professionals, and Six Sigma Green Belt and Black Belt practitioners. Anyone who needs to translate customer requirements into product or service specifications will benefit, and no prior QFD knowledge is required.

Is QFD training worth it for product and quality professionals?

Yes. QFD gives you a repeatable way to design quality in from the start, cut costly late redesign, and align cross-functional teams around customer needs. In Japan, where a growing engineer shortage puts a premium on design-quality skills, it is a strong, practical addition to your toolkit. Talk to a learning advisor to get started.

Do I need prior quality management experience?

No. The course introduces QFD and the House of Quality from first principles, so no formal prerequisites are needed. Familiarity with product development, quality management or Six Sigma is helpful but not required.

Why did QFD originate in Japan, and does that still matter?

QFD was created in Japan, first applied at Mitsubishi's Kobe Shipyard in 1972 and adopted widely by Toyota and its suppliers. That heritage still matters because the method remains a cornerstone of Japanese quality practice across automotive, electronics and machinery product development today.

How much does QFD training in Japan cost?

Pricing varies by delivery mode, group size and whether the training is public or corporate, so the current fee is available on request. Live online, classroom and onsite corporate options are priced differently. Request a quote and a learning advisor will share the options that suit you.

What is included in the QFD course fee?

The fee typically includes instructor-led training across all six QFD modules, structured courseware, House of Quality templates and worksheets, hands-on exercises, and a course completion record from Invensis Learning. Confirm the exact inclusions for your chosen format when you request a quote.

Do you offer corporate or group pricing?

Yes. We offer group and corporate pricing for teams, with customised schedules for PMOs, product, quality and engineering groups. Ask about corporate or group pricing and we will tailor a quote to your team size and delivery preference.

Are there payment or instalment options?

Yes. We accept major cards and bank transfer, and instalment options are available on selected plans. Speak with a learning advisor to choose the option that fits you.

Is there a discount for enrolling a team?

Group enrolments are quoted with volume-based pricing, so training a whole cross-functional team together is usually more cost-effective per learner. Contact us for a tailored group quote.

Is there an exam for the QFD course?

No. QFD training is a practical, non-certification course with no examination. Learning is reinforced through hands-on House of Quality construction exercises, case studies and team discussion during the one-day programme.

Do I receive a certificate after the training?

You receive a course completion record from Invensis Learning after completing the programme. This is a record of attendance and participation, not a formal credential from an awarding body, because QFD training is a skills course rather than a certification.

Is QFD an accredited qualification?

No. QFD is an established methodology with no single governing body and no formal awarding body for the training. The value is in the practical House of Quality skills you gain and apply, which do not expire or need renewal.

How is my learning assessed during the course?

There is no formal assessment. Instead, you build and interpret real House of Quality matrices through hands-on exercises and team activities, so you leave able to apply the method on your own products and services.

Will this help with my Six Sigma or DFSS work?

Yes. QFD is a core tool in Design for Six Sigma (the DMADV Measure phase) and in the DMAIC Define phase, where it translates the voice of the customer into critical-to-quality requirements. The skills transfer directly to Green Belt and Black Belt projects.

What will I learn in the QFD training?

You will learn to capture and structure the voice of the customer, build all six rooms of the House of Quality, resolve design trade-offs with the correlation roof, set engineering targets, and cascade requirements through product, parts, process and production planning.

What is the House of Quality?

The House of Quality is the central QFD planning matrix. It links customer requirements to engineering characteristics, rates the strength of each relationship, benchmarks competitors, flags design conflicts in the roof, and sets measurable engineering targets, all anchored to customer priorities.

Does the course cover all four phases of QFD?

Yes. The programme covers the full four-phase QFD system: product planning (the House of Quality), parts deployment, process planning and production planning, so you can trace a customer requirement all the way to a production control.

Is QFD useful for services and software, not just manufacturing?

Yes. While QFD began in manufacturing, the course covers applications in services, healthcare, financial services and software. The House of Quality applies wherever customer requirements must be translated into design or delivery specifications.

Are there hands-on exercises?

Yes. Hands-on House of Quality construction runs throughout the day, including voice-of-customer structuring, Kano classification, building a full matrix from a realistic scenario, and calculating column importance to identify design priorities.

How do I enrol in QFD training in Japan?

You can enrol through the Invensis Learning website or by contacting our team. Choose your preferred format, complete your booking, and you will receive access to your schedule, courseware and learning resources. See upcoming batches to get started.

What training formats are available?
