Goals and Approaches
QQI publishes a strategy statement every three years. This statement indicates our mission, vision and values for the organisation as well as our strategic goals and approaches.
These goals and approaches are also captured in our medium-term vision through our annual corporate plan.
To help us plan and achieve our short, medium and long-term objectives, we prepare a progress report for the QQI board at the end of each quarter.The report consists of a status update on implementation of the corporate plan. This enables us to see the areas of the plan that are on track, completed, deferred or at risk.
Strategy Statement
This is QQI’s second strategy statement and covers the three year period from January 2016 to December 2018. It provides direction and guidance for our staff and our stakeholders on our mission, vision, values and goals and our approaches to how we intend to achieve our outcomes. It will inform successive annual corporate plans which will set out the objectives, actions and outputs to be achieved each year by the organisation.
Corporate Plans
We produce a yearly corporate plan. The corporate plan lists the corporate objectives and actions to take place in a given year and aligns them with the relevant goal from our
Strategic Statement. We have published our corporate plan for 2016. The plan sets out a number of objectives that we intend to achieve in 2016. It also details our key activities for the year and indicates the dates by which they will be complete.
Annual Reports
At the end of each year, we examine our outputs in relation to our corporate plan. We look at what we did and how it impacted on the performance of the organisation. This analysis is published in our annual report. We also publish annual financial statements.
Protected Disclosures
Section 22 of the Protected Disclosure Act 2014 requires the publication of a report each year relating to the number of protected disclosures made in the preceding year and also for the publication of information with regard to any actions taken in response to protected disclosures made.
