If you cannot measure an activity, you cannot control it. If you cannot control it, you cannot manage it. Without dependable measurements, intelligent decisions cannot be made. Performance measurement is not simply concerned with collecting data associated with a predefined performance goal or standard. Performance measurement is better thought of as an overall management system involving prevention and detection aimed at achieving conformance of the work product or service to your customer's requirements. This course let you know:

• How well you are doing
• If you are meeting your goals
