Quick Course Guide

The ProQual Level 6 Diploma in Quality Control and Quality Assurance (QA/QC) – Engineering is a comprehensive UK-regulated qualification developed for professionals who want to advance their knowledge of engineering quality systems, quality assurance and quality control. Awarded by ProQual AB, the qualification is regulated by Ofqual and included within the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), offering a recognised route for developing advanced knowledge and professional capability in engineering quality management.

The qualification examines how effective QA/QC systems are planned, implemented, monitored and improved across civil, mechanical and electrical engineering. Learner develops knowledge of Quality Management Systems (QMS), quality standards, regulatory requirements, risk management, inspection and testing, quality performance evaluation and continuous improvement. The curriculum also introduces established quality methodologies and improvement techniques, including ISO 9001, Six Sigma, Total Quality Management (TQM), Kaizen and the PDCA cycle, helping learner understand structured approaches to achieving consistent engineering quality.

The qualification is well suited to quality engineers, QA/QC engineers, inspectors, supervisors, engineering professionals and technical personnel seeking to enhance their competence and prepare for increased responsibility within quality-focused environments. By combining quality management theory with discipline-specific engineering applications, the diploma supports professional development across a broad range of engineering projects and industrial settings. On successful completion, learner may also consider progression to the ProQual Level 7 Diploma in Quality Control and Quality Assurance (QA/QC), subject to the relevant progression requirements.

To enrol in the ProQual Level 7 Diploma in Quality Control and Quality Assurance (QA/QC), learner should meet the following entry requirements:

  • Minimum Age: 19+ years.
  • Educational Background : A relevant Level 3 qualification or equivalent in engineering, construction, or a related technical field is recommended
  • Work Experience: Candidates should have experience in engineering, construction, or quality control-related roles
  • Prior Knowledge: Basic understanding of quality control processes, engineering systems, and safety standards is beneficial

The ProQual Level 6 Diploma in Quality Control and Quality Assurance (QA/QC) – Engineering consists of the following five mandatory units:

  1. Principles of Quality Control and Quality Assurance
  2. Quality Management Systems and Standards
  3. Quality Control & Quality Assurance in Civil Engineering Projects
  4. Quality Control & Quality Assurance in Mechanical Field Activities and Systems
  5. Quality Control & Quality Assurance in Electrical Systems

The ProQual Level 6 Diploma in Quality Control and Quality Assurance (QA/QC) – Engineering may be a strong choice for learner seeking advanced knowledge and professional development in engineering quality management. The qualification is particularly relevant to individuals who want to strengthen their understanding of QA/QC systems and prepare for greater responsibility across engineering, construction, manufacturing and industrial environments.

This qualification may be suitable if learner:

  • Wants to develop advanced knowledge of engineering quality control and quality assurance.
  • Works in or plans to progress into QA/QC, quality management or engineering quality roles.
  • Wants to understand how Quality Management Systems (QMS) are implemented and maintained.
