XXIII POLISH QUALITY DAY combined with 60th Anniversary of the Polish Centre for Testing and Certification

60 years is a very good opportunity to celebrate together.

Yesterday, in Warsaw at the KONESER Praga Center, XXIII POLISH QUALITY DAY combined with the 60th Anniversary of the Polish Centre for Testing and Certification took place.

A unique day when we could meet with our clients – representatives of science, business, government and local administration, health care institutions, associations and chambers of industry, as well as our auditors, trainers and employees.

It was also a good time to look back, summarize achievements, reward organizations involved in development of management systems and listen to interesting speeches of our guests.

Thank you for your speeches, warm words and congratulation letters we received on the occasion of our jubilee.

Congratulations for all distinguished Organizations and wish them further successes.

On the occasion of our jubilee, we invited a special guest, who was Martyna Wojciechowska, journalist, traveller, writer, producer, director, maker of the “Woman at the End of the World” programme for 11 years.

We thank once more for the presentation “Impossible does not exist, i.e. the role of passion in human life” and hope that it was an inspiration for our guests to develop and spread the idea of quality in the farthest nooks of the world and the slogan “impossible does not exist” will become the motto of everyone of us.

XXIII Polish Quality Day has already gone in history, but we are sure that our idea of distinguishing businessmen and organizations for achievements in the field of quality will not allow us to stop organizing such events in the coming years.

Therefore, we tell all quality people to see you at the next POLISH QUALITY DAY and once again thank you for being with us!
