Quality Assessment
As ?Customer Satisfaction? is an ultimate goal in measuring the company success and performance for both SAP Thailand and Piyathana Co.,Ltd. Therefore, we need to emphasize in giving the high priority in assessing the overall training quality from the beginning to the end of the course delivery. We would like to take your time in reading our defined standard procedures and urge for your cooperation and support as follows. Your feedback helps us for prompt corrective actions and future improvement.

1. Online Initial Instructor Assessment (IIA) ? On the first half day of the course :
You shall receive an ?Initial Instructor Assessment Form? together with the participant handbook available on the table. You are required to provide an input or feedback by clicking a provided icon on your desktop/computer. This procedure is aimed in getting an initial assessment result on the quality of the training delivery on a designed instructor during ?the first half day of the course?. We do understand that each participant may find it hard to provide a definite result due to the short duration spent by each trainer. Therefore, most of the participants may find it more applicable in completing the assessment at the end of day. Anyhow, the sooner we get the feedback, the better we can manage the issue resolution. As soon as we receive the feedback, we take a serious review and analysis on an individual basis. Should we find any negative feedback or suggestions, we shall directly approach the participant in getting more clarification and then share them with an instructor to discuss on any required improvements or other resolutions. The participants are required to provide the feedback again at the end of the first day. If the results still seem unsatisfied or the improvements are very minimal, the company will take one of the following :

  1. A qualified trainer replacement will be performed as far as a trainer is available to continue delivering the course on next following day.
  2. A class cancellation will be decided if a replacement is not applicable. Piyathana coordinate with all participants to define and confirm the possible dates for the course delivery.

2. Online Evaluation System (OES) ? Course Evaluation on the last day :
All participants are required to provide the evaluation feedback by clicking the provided icon on the desktop/computer at the end of the course delivery. A prompt analysis and action will be done by Piyathana?s management for various corrective actions for any poor responses.
