Strengthening Medical Device Engineering Teams
- "Most training in this industry teaches what the regulations say. DQS teaches how to satisfy those regulations in the context of the device being designed and the organizations doing the work."
- "Companies that work with DQS from the start see fewer rework cycles. Capability training pays for itself in months saved, market access protected and project success."
- "A reliable partner for organizations aiming to move from fragmented development practices to consistent, approval-ready outcomes."
The edge isn't knowing the regulation. It's implementing it.
An engineer who knows what a robust design input looks like doesn't write the ambiguous requirement that forces a redesign. A team that knows what a reviewer expects doesn't submit thin validation that draws a deficiency letter. That is what we mean by capability, and it is what every DQS course is built to deliver.
"What we offer is capability-focused training. We understand the regulation, but we are also going to teach you how to implement it smartly." Dr. John Salvato, Founder and President
Practitioner-built, self-paced, with live expert support before and after each course.
Built by practitioners
Dr. John Salvato, from more than 30 years of front-line medical device and automotive work. He has defended these methods with regulators worldwide, so you are learning from someone who has been through the audits you are preparing for.
Hands-on with a sample device
Every step is practiced on a sample device, with DQS answers to check your work.
Live time with a DQS expert
Every course includes live time with a DQS expert before and after the training, so you can connect the material to your own technical challenges.
Aligned with FDA and ISO
Courses align with the FDA's QMSR, ISO 13485, ISO 14971, IEC 62366-1, SW96 and current FDA guidance, and are updated as the regulations change.
Fits around your work
Courses are on demand and split into short lessons. Most learners finish in 2 to 4 weeks, and you have 60 days to complete each course.
Certificates for your training file
Each person receives a certificate showing the course, date and hours of instruction, suitable for ISO 13485 and QMSR training records.
The Business Case for Technical Training in Medical Device Development
How upstream competence reduces design rework, shortens design cycles, and accelerates product submission approval.
Read the white paperMedical devices give sight, restore mobility and buy families time. Behind every one is a team trying to ease suffering. We train those teams to get it right the first time.
Get it right the first time.
Build the capability that keeps rework out of your budget and deficiency letters out of your submissions.
