Foothill-De Anza and Product Realization Group Partner on Product Realization Certification

Revised program helps companies accelerate time-to-market

SAN JOSE, Calif., July 19, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- The Center for Applied Competitive Technologies (CACT) in the Foothill-De Anza Community College District and Product Realization Group have teamed to develop a three-month, continuing education certification program that covers all aspects of the product lifecycle and new product introduction (NPI). Classes begin September 27.

The program is structured in five modules that cover engineering development; product reliability; data management processes and collaboration; supply chain management; and business compliance. The class meets Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6-8 p.m. and runs until December 13.

"Through this program, participants will gain a new understanding of how they can improve their organization's competitiveness through the use of team-based development and industry best practices," said Rick Kuhn, director of Foothill-De Anza's Center for Applied Competitive Technologies. "It offers a rare opportunity for students to have access to the people who are at the forefront of developing the next-generation NPI services."

Michael Keer, Founder and CEO of the Product Realization Group, said, "For 2011 we will be following a new product from initial concept, development, new product introduction through volume manufacturing."

"The effects of increased business competition, technological complexity, and globalization have combined to result in a gap between product development and manufacturing," he said. "We created this program with the Center for Applied Competitive Technologies to help businesses that want to accelerate time-to-market and understand how quality, compliance, and customer service integrate into the process."

"There were good and practical examples that clarified the concepts," said Bob O'Hagan, a senior Quality and Engineering professional, who completed last year's program.

The Product Realization Group certificate program is ideal for design engineers, engineering program managers, document control and operations engineering and supply chain personnel (including managers) who are interested in learning best practices about the development and release of electronic high-technology products. The training course offers an opportunity to gain a comprehensive understanding of the product lifecycle and NPI processes. All materials are presented by practicing subject matter experts. Class meetings will be held at the Krause Center for Innovation at Foothill College.
