New CD Training Tool for ISO9000

A common phrase in today's business world is ISO9000. Organizations proudly advertise their ISO certification and companies are increasingly demanding it as a requirement for doing international business.

But what is ISO? How does a company obtain ISO certification? How can it benefit a business? Where can you turn to find this information?

The solution may be found with Creatively Simple Solutions Inc. (CSSI), a new tenant in InNOVAcorp's Technology Innovation Centre in Dartmouth.

CSSI recently celebrated the launch of a new product, an interactive CD-ROM called Simply ISO9000. This easy-to-use CD-ROM is intended to provide a sound understanding of ISO9000 requirements to companies considering ISO9000 certification, and to serve as a training tool for companies that are already certified.

Its easy-to-understand format features examples, case studies, and question-and-answer and quiz segments for each of the 20 elements of ISO9000. It is a practical tool for everyone, from the seasoned computer veteran to the novice.

This CD-ROM is an outstanding example of what Nova Scotian entrepreneurs can do. It is cutting-edge technology, right in our own backyard. And that's what Innovation Showcase 98 is all about.

Creatively Simple Solutions will be on hand to demonstrate their Simply ISO9000 during InNOVAcorp's Innovation Showcase 98 on Oct. 1, from 1:30 p.m. to 7 p.m., at One Research Drive in Dartmouth. Those planning to attend are asked to call 1-888-354-5855.
