QAI Partners with TopFloor to Offer Professional Trainings and Certifications in Zambia


New Delhi, Delhi, India, Monday, August 06, 2012 -- (Business Wire India) -- QAI (www.qaiglobal.com), the leading global consulting and workforce development organization recently announced their partnership with TopFloor, the premier provider of business and technical Human Capital Development in Zambia.

Top Floor would represent QAI as an Authorised Education Provider (AEP) in Zambia and provide internationally certified courses that aim towards skill building and competency development of the workforce in the region.

Through this partnership, TopFloor has begun offering various courses and certifications in the domains of Project Management, Quality and Process Improvement, Human Capital Management, and the like.

Presently, there are no local providers in Zambia capable of providing internationally certified courses. This partnership aims to provide customers local access to these courses so that the Zambian workforce need not go to neighboring countries to get the training needed to upgrade their skills.

Leading Training and IT organizations across the globe have partnered with QAI under the Authorized Education Provider (AEP) program and are offering QAI's instructor led trainings, certifications and eLearning courses in their respective geographies. Currently, the AEP network of QAI includes education partners in the Americas, Europe, Asia and Africa.

QAI's Authorized Education Provider (AEP) partnership program focuses on providing a strong product portfolio of trainings, certifications and assessments to the partner organizations. It offers career development programs for individuals in the domains of Project Management, Business Analysis, Six Sigma etc. Additionally, it also has over 70 titles in instructor led trainings and e-learning courses in various other domains like software engineering and test automation, business process improvement, innovation management, IT service management etc.

Commenting on this partnership, Mr. B. David Vosburg, MD, TopFloor said "TopFloor and QAI will work toward bringing international quality certifications and consulting in the domain of process improvement to Zambia and make Zambia a hub of skill development in the region. By increasing the number of Internationally Certified people in Zambia and the region, TopFloor and QAI will create an environment where multi-nationals can re-locate to take advantage of skilled labor."

Mr. Navyug Mohnot, CEO, QAI, said "We are excited to announce our partnership with TopFloor and are confident that QAI's internationally accepted courses will provide a platform to support this skill building initiative which will enable Zambia and the neighboring countries to harness the full potential of its workforce which has been challenging in the past."
