Is QFD training worth it for professionals in New Zealand?

Yes. QFD skills are valued across New Zealand's manufacturing, medical technology, food processing and product design sectors, where employers want people who can design quality in from the start. You gain a practical, immediately usable method for connecting customer needs to design decisions.

Who should attend this QFD course?

The training suits product designers and design engineers, quality engineers, product managers, marketing and R&D professionals, and Six Sigma Green and Black Belt practitioners. Anyone who translates customer requirements into product or service specifications will benefit.

Do I need prior experience to take QFD training?

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

What is the House of Quality?

The House of Quality is the central QFD planning matrix, named for its house-like shape. It links customer requirements to engineering characteristics, rates the strength of each relationship, benchmarks against competitors, maps trade-offs in the correlation roof, and sets measurable engineering targets.

How much does QFD training cost in New Zealand?

Pricing varies by delivery mode (live online, classroom or corporate onsite), group size and schedule, so the fee is available on request. Request a quote from a learning advisor to get current New Zealand pricing for your preferred format.

What is included in the course fee?

The fee typically includes expert-led instruction across all six QFD modules, hands-on House of Quality exercises, course materials and templates, and a course completion certificate from Invensis Learning. Ask about the exact inclusions for your chosen format.

Do you offer group or corporate pricing?

Yes. Corporate group training is available with schedules and content tailored to your team, and volume-based pricing for organisations. Contact us for a tailored group quote.

Are there savings for booking a full team?

Group and corporate bookings are quoted on team size and delivery format. Booking a cross-functional team together is often the most cost-effective option and is ideal for QFD, since the House of Quality is built as a team. Ask about group rates.

How do I pay and are instalments available?

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

Is there an exam for QFD training?

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

Do I receive a certificate after the course?

Yes. Participants receive a course completion record from Invensis Learning after completing the one-day programme. The training builds practical QFD skills that are immediately applicable, with no external credential or renewal to maintain.

How is learning assessed on the course?

There is no formal assessment. Instead, you apply what you learn through practical activities, building and interpreting a House of Quality from a realistic product or service scenario, so you can use the method at work straight away.

Will I be able to build a House of Quality after training?

Yes. By the end of the course you can capture the Voice of the Customer, construct a full House of Quality, calculate column importance, resolve design conflicts, and cascade QFD through parts, process and production planning.

Does QFD training support Six Sigma work?

Yes. QFD is a core tool in Design for Six Sigma (the DMADV Measure phase) and in DMAIC (the Define phase) for translating the Voice of the Customer into CTQs. The course shows how to apply QFD within both.

What topics does the QFD course cover?

The one-day programme covers QFD principles and origins, Voice of the Customer capture (interviews, affinity diagram, Kano model), full House of Quality construction, interpreting the matrix, the four-phase QFD cascade, and QFD in DFSS, DMAIC and service design.

How long is the QFD training?

The course is delivered in one day (8 hours), or as two extended half-days totalling 8 hours. It covers all six QFD modules with concept explanations, real-world examples and hands-on House of Quality exercises throughout.

What is the Voice of the Customer in QFD?

The Voice of the Customer is the full set of customer needs, wants and expectations a product or service must satisfy. In QFD it forms the WHATs on the left of the House of Quality. The course teaches how to capture, structure and prioritise it using affinity diagrams and the Kano model.

Does the course cover service and software design?

Yes. While QFD began in manufacturing, the course covers applying it to services such as healthcare and financial services, and to software, alongside product development. The House of Quality works wherever customer requirements must become design specifications.

How do I enrol in QFD training?

You can enrol through the Invensis Learning website. Choose your preferred format, complete your booking, and you receive access to schedules, course materials and learning resources. Talk to a learning advisor if you need help choosing.

What delivery formats are available?

The course is available as live online (virtual instructor-led) training, in-person classroom training, and corporate onsite delivery. Choose the format that best fits your schedule and team. See upcoming schedules to get started.

Can the course be delivered onsite for my organisation?

Yes. Corporate onsite delivery lets a cross-functional team train together and build a House of Quality for one of your own products or services, creating immediate value. Contact us to arrange an onsite session in New Zealand.

When are the next QFD sessions in New Zealand?

New sessions run regularly across live online and classroom formats. For current New Zealand dates and to reserve a place, view upcoming schedules or speak with a learning advisor.

Can I reschedule my booking?

Yes. Flexible options let you reschedule to another session where available. Contact our support team to arrange a change to your booking.

What Is Quality Function Deployment and Why It Matters

A Customer-Driven Design Method

Quality Function Deployment (QFD) is a structured, customer-driven method for translating the Voice of the Customer into specific technical and engineering characteristics at every stage of product and service development. Quality Function Deployment Training in New Zealand gives you the practical skills to capture what customers really need and turn it into measurable design targets using the House of Quality matrix.

Developed in Japan by Yoji Akao and Shigeru Mizuno, and first applied at Mitsubishi's Kobe Shipyard in 1972, QFD is now used across automotive, aerospace, healthcare, electronics and software. The four-phase QFD model cascades customer requirements from product planning through parts deployment, process planning and production planning, so quality is designed in from the start.

This one-day programme suits product designers, design and quality engineers, product managers and Six Sigma practitioners across New Zealand who want a repeatable, evidence-based way to design customer value. Learn the method with Invensis Learning and start applying the House of Quality to your own products and services.
