What’s the difference between QC and QA?

Quality Control vs Quality Assurance

When starting in the vast world of quality management systems, one of the first questions I had was related to the differences between quality control and quality assurance. I think these phrases get thrown around interchangeably, and I’m sure in certain situations it really doesn’t matter, but overall I think there are a few distinct differences between the two.

Starting fresh!

So let’s try this website thing again shall we?

Now that I’m further along in my work, hobbies, and life in general, I have some ideas on what I want for my website.  So here are the goals:

  1. Blog – General thoughts about life and whatnots.  More personal and less business-like structure that just becomes a place to jot down thoughts and ideas
  2. Quality – Since the company I work for has gotten through our ISO 9001:2015 program successfully, I feel like there’s some info I can share here for other people who were me 3 years ago.
  3. Beer – Still a passion of mine.  While I don’t brew nearly as much as I’d like to, I’d like a place to share interesting articles related to the beer world and related ideas.
  4. Resume – Not sure if I’ll make it public but a page to host my resume and keep track of my work history and achievements.
  5. WordPress 5.0 – learn more about formatting and understand the new 5.0 updates instead of just winging it every time I log on here.

I think that’s enough.  I’ll start with the blog and its format to be easily read.  I struggled with using categories in the past because I try to make things too structured.  So let’s see if I can make this easier for me.  Onwards!
