EFQM Excellence Model User Group

The purpose of the EFQM Excellence Model User Group is to help anybody already involved in using the Model or interested in using it, to achieve optimum results by learning from the experiences of others.

It has three main aims:

• To provide a network forum for current and prospective Model users
• To learn and promote pragmatic ‘hints, tips and practices' that can be used to deliver benefits
• To share practices that make the Model most relevant to today and tomorrow's environment.

The group is open to all, from those considering use of the Model through to Award Winners. The meetings, so far, have included guest speakers, networking activities and sessions to share and discuss good practice.

• Recommended Reading for the Model User Group
• Resources and Reference Points for Benchmarking

In addition to our physical meetings, you can also join in on Twitter #BQFNetworking or join our LinkedIn Group to find out the latest news from the EFQM Excellence Model User Group and to get involved with the latest discussions.

The Steering Committee arranges the Group's meetings and events. If you would like to assist, for example by hosting or speaking at an event, or suggesting a topic for discussion please call 020 7654 5006 or email Annabelle Flower.

Testimonial

'I attended the BQF Model User Group event in Birmingham at the BIG Lottery Fund in December, and found it to be a really useful and interesting day. I learned a lot of things that will be really useful to NIACE in our quality improvement efforts.'
