CQI-11 – Evaluation of special surface treatment processes: the method – #2511
1,190.00 € HT
Context
- CQI-11 (Plating System Assessment) is a standard developed by the Automotive Industry Action Group (AIAG) to evaluate and improve electroplating surface treatment systems in the automotive industry.
- In compliance with IATF 16949 and to meet specific customer requirements, this standard applies to all automotive suppliers performing surface treatment processes. The CQI-11 assessment aims to reduce the risk of failure in electroplating processes, ensure the reliability and durability of treated components, and guarantee compliance with the quality, safety, and performance expectations of automotive manufacturers.
- CQI-11 is part of a continuous improvement approach for special processes, providing a structured framework for self-assessment of process control, equipment compliance, personnel competence, and the effectiveness of existing controls.
- This training enables participants to understand the requirements and best practices of CQI-11, apply the self-assessment rules, and implement actions to improve surface treatment processes.
Objectives
- Understand the specific requirements of CQI-11.
- Explore the contents of the CQI-11 manual, including self-assessment tables, job audits, and related tools.
- Identify the key points and critical elements in the CQI-11 manual.
- Learn how to apply the self-assessment questionnaire from the manual through a technical case study.
Recommanded for
- Quality / QHSE managers, engineers and technicians.
- Quality engineers.
- Methods engineers.
- Internal auditors.
- Customer of a supplier subject to CQI-11.
Prerequisites

Specific operating conditions for remote sessions
- Have a PC equipped with a microphone, webcam and, if possible, a headset for greater comfort. Note: To blur or hide the view from behind, background screens are available in Zoom or Teams.
- A good Internet connection, tested before the session.
- Locate in a quiet, isolated area; switch to “not available” status in Teams; close your email access and mute your phone to avoid distraction during the session.
- To avoid off-topic discussions during the session, participants from the same organisation should not be grouped together in the same room, but rather at their own desks. Virtual sub-groups will be set up specifically for the exercises, which will also allow for mixed groups to be created.
- The webcam and microphone must be open during remote qualification/certification exams. It may also be necessary for us to check that you are the only one in the room.
- We ask that you connect at least 5 minutes before the beginning of the session.
Pedagogy
- The training alternates between theoretical sessions on CQI-11 requirements and practical application exercises using a technical case study.
Evaluation mode
- Knowledge test (MCQ).
