Dear Information Quality Newsletter Readers:

In this issue, my lead article addresses the threat of global warming and poor quality information and how it relates to you. Read for yourself and let me hear from you.

In the second article, Andres Perez discusses an approach to implement the "Fourth Rule of Quality by Design: Capture Information about Defects and Events." This approach enables capturing details on processes, events and defects such that defect correction is not only possible, but highly effective.

Several certification candidates have completed all their training requirements to become certified in TIQM, the most comprehensive IQ method anywhere. They have started their practicum work, conducting TIQM assessments, cost analyses and process improvements.

To a High IQ!
