TQC Plaquette
 
BENEFITS OF TQC CERTIFICATION
 
Major natural and man-made disasters often extend beyond the borders of a single country. A country hit by a disaster can launch an appeal to the international community for help when it is unable to properly handle the consequences. TQC can act as the facilitator element in the cooperation's efforts between countries and organizations through the use of a common language and a common knowledge and understanding. Cooperation is also essential to prevention, and the exchange of good practices in prevention and preparedness is the backbone of such cooperation.
 
TQC COMPETENCE FOCUS

The scope of International Emergency and Disaster Management (IEDM) is as wide as the globe is round. TIEMS encourages TQC candidates to gain exposure to the many aspects that comprise the field. For the TQC certification process, TIEMS has focused on seven competence areas in international emergency and disaster management as shown in the figure below.

TQC Competence Focus ver1

This TQC Competence Focus was informed by a TIEMS survey, which asked international emergency management and disaster response community experts to give their opinion on the content and structure of TQC Certification. The report with the conclusions of this survey is found at the following link: TQC Survey Findings

TIEMS ACADEMY AND TQC LEARNING MATERIAL
 
TQC Applicants may acquire required Competencies anywhere they wish – past coursework or experience, independent study, or they may take on-line or in-person courses. As time goes by, TIEMS Academy will be providing access to an increasing number of courses relevant to TQC Competencies. TIEMS Academy will guide the TQC Certification Candidates to relevant teaching material for their preparation for the TQC Certification.

TQC CANDIDATE STUDY AND EVALUATION GUIDE

The TQC Candidate Study and Evaluation Guide, will be available for the TQC Candidates, when they are logged into the TQC Web Platform. It provides the requirements and steps the Candidate has to go through on his/her way to TQC Certification, and include a wide range of references, together with a list of acronyms, covering many aspects of IEDM. Although the TQC exam will not cover all this material, it will help the candidate broaden their knowledge and better understand the exam topics. They also find references to the seven TQC Competence Areas, which the TQC Candidate needs to demonstrate knowledge in.

TQC APPLICATION AND COMPLIANCE PROCESS

The TQC Application and Compliance Process comprises the four first steps (1 - 4) in the full TQC certification process:

STEP 1 STEP 2 STEP 3 & 4
A TQC Applicant who decides to apply for TQC Certification interacts with TQC Certification Board by filling out the TQC Application Form accessed from TIEMS web-site and by this communicate interest in TQC Certification.
The TQC Certification Board evaluate the Applicants TQC Application Form and if finding him/her qualified, sends him a “username” and “password” for access to the TQC Web Platform. He/she then needs to upload all the required documentation described above, to the TQC Web Platform. The TQC Compliance Board assesses all Applicant's documentation and follows the Compliance Rules to verify that it is compliant. At the end of STEP 4, the TQC Compliance Board  issues the Compliance Report, and if compliant gives the candidate "green light" to continue the TQC certification process, or the TQC Compliance Board will provide feedback to the applicant to help him/her to correct deficiencies, where possible, before the candidate can continue the TQC certification process.

 TQC EXAMINATION AND APPROVAL PROCESS

TQC Applicants may acquire required Competencies anywhere they wish – past coursework or experience, independent study, or they may take on-line or in-person courses. TIEMS Academy will be available to the Candidate, when logged into the TQC Web Platform, and here the Candidate will finnd some relevant courses for his/her preparation for the TQC Exam. As time goes by, TIEMS Academy will be filled up with more and more relevant courses.

The TQC Examination and Approval Process comprises the four last steps (5- 8) in the full TQC certification process:

STEP 5 & 6
 STEP 7 & 8
The TQC Examination Board reviews the Compliance Report and works with the Applicant to set up and administer a proctored on-line exam according to the TQC Candidate Study and Evaluation Guide. After the exam, the TQC Examination Board issues an Examination Report. The TQC Certification Board assesses the Applicant's Compliance and Examination Documentation, and decides whether to award TQC Certification to the Applicant. The TQC Certification Board completes its activity by issuing the Certification Report.

In order for the TQC candidates to take the TQC exam wherever they are worldwide, TIEMS has implemented on-line proctoring of the TQC candidates during their examination by using the ProctorFree solution. ProctorFree is an on-demand, automated proctoring solution designed to help institutions of higher learning and commercial organizations add layers of security and academic integrity to the online learning environment experience. ProctorFree provides an accurate identification and authentication of the TQC exam candidate. This proctoring solution is scalable, user-friendly, and cost-effective. For more information about ProctorFree please visit www.proctorfree.com.

The TQC Certification Board will inform the Applicant.

TQC Exam

Examination Criteria TQC Re-Certification

The exam questions will focus on emergency management principles and practices reflected in the Examination Competence Framework and background knowledge reflected in the TQC Candidate Study and Evaluation Guide.

The exam will consist of 50 multiple-choice questions and 10 essay questions. Each multiple choice question will have four possible responses. The examinee must choose the best answer. For the essay question the examinee has to answer with a free text of minimum 100 words.

The exam must be completed in less than 4 - four hours in order to “pass”, and the examinee must score 67% or better on the multiple-choice questions and 67% or better in the essay questions.

All the details are found in the TQC Candidate Study and Evaluation Guide

TIEMS International Certification - TQC is valid for three (3) years.

 In case of re-certification, the TQC Certification Board will mostly be involved in asking the TQC certified person to submit the Re-Certification Form, if he/she intends to maintain his/her certification. The TQC Certification Board evaluates the TQC certified person’s experience and education/training during the 3 years TQC certification period, and issues a Re-Certification Certificate, or asks the candidate to take the Re-Certification Exam. In the latter case, the evaluation will follow the same procedure, but simpler, as with a new TQC certification.
 
TQC Cost Policy

TIEMS general policy is that education and certification in emergency and disaster management should be affordable by most, and therefore the cost of being TQC certified will be kept at a minimum, covering only the cost to TIEMS for offering and maintaining the TQC service.

The price to become TQC certified, TQC Certification Fee, will be decided later when TIEMS has an overview of the costs involved. This will be evaluated in the TQC Test Period together with the TQC Test Candidates.

It is required that before the TQC Certification Board will initiate the TQC certification process for the Applicant, the Applicant must become a TIEMS Member, and the Applicant need to pay a TQC Certification Fee to cover the costs of the certification process. After the Applicant has passed the TQC exam, his/her TIEMS membership will be upgraded to TIEMS Professional Certified Member.

If the TQC Applicant fails to fulfill the compliance requirements, as described in the section TIEMS International Certification - TQC Compliance, 50% of the TQC Certification Fee will be refunded. The kept fee is to cover the expenses incurred by TIEMS personnel by evaluating the Applicant’s compliance requirements.

It is also to be understood that TIEMS does not guarantee that an applicant’s certification will be successful. No claim of liability, in any shape of form, can be made by any applicant against TIEMS and/or any of its officers who are part of the TQC process(es).

HOW TO START THE TQC CERTIFICATION PROCESS

Detailed instructions of how to start the process of becoming TQC Certified, is found on the TQC Web Platform
