Introduction
In the aerospace sector, problem solving must be systematic, evidence-based, and compliant with industry expectations. Based on ASEQ RM 131000, aerospace organizations are required to apply disciplined problem-solving approaches to protect product safety, customer satisfaction, and regulatory compliance.
The Aerospace 8D Problem Solving Method is a globally accepted, team-oriented methodology widely used by aerospace OEMs and suppliers to resolve complex quality and process issues. This 2-day public training by SQI provides participants with practical knowledge, proven tools, and hands-on experience to confidently apply the 8D methodology in real aerospace environments.
