Falmouth, Mass. (PRWEB) February 13, 2015 -- The National Graduate School of Quality Management is pleased to announce the establishment of the NGS Alumni Association (NGSAA). The purpose of the NGSAA is to create a unified, informed, and engaged body of alumni who collectively involve themselves with the interests and activities which perpetuate the NGS vision or in promoting the body of knowledge related to quality management. The mission is to foster the NGS experience and the bond between the alumni and their College on a global basis, and to promote the principles and traditions of NGS, which include excellence, continuous improvement, and transformative leadership.
Dr. Harold L Gilmore has been appointed as the Director of the NGS AA and will report directly to the President, Dr. R. Clinton Miner.
